Fruit flies are really difficult to tolerate. It is such a pain to deal with these little tiny creatures. They have a life span of 8-10 days, however they reproduce at a massive speed. They are attracted to fruits and vegetables that are fermenting or are rotten. Can you believe that fruit flies do not have a taste of their own. It is their nostrils that help them in landing up to the fruits and vegetables.<\/p>\n

Place a dish soap in the jar, such that the flies get glued to it and unable to fly when they are done with tasting the fruit. Roll up a piece of paper and fold it in a funnel shape and place it at the mouth of the jar. You can also drop a ripe fruit in the jar to tempt the fruit flies. The flies will get inside the jar, but will get lost during their return journey. The flies will be attracted to the odor of the vinegar and will enter the jar. They will slowly drool down in the liquid. You can also place the jar in the freezer once the fruit flies are inside it. They will naturally die ue to the temperature.<\/p>\n

Let the jar be covered with a transparent plastic sheet or wrap it with a polythene cover. Make some holes in the wrap with a toothpick or a pen. Place the jar in a place where you experience more fruit flies. The flies will be drawn to the jar and will soon be trapped inside the jar. They will be unable to find out the exit point. Once the jar is full of fruit flies, submerge the jar in a bucket of warm and soapy water. Let the glass jar be there for 30 minutes. The fruit flies will no longer survive. Clean the jar and repeat the procedure whenever you have to deal with these tiny creatures.<\/p>\n
