FRUIT FLY/GNAT TRAP



Fruit Fly/Gnat Trap image

This will help take care of those fruit flies that gather around the stuff you have to take out to the compost pile or those bananas you haven't gotten around to baking with yet. The photo I posted (the one with the cherry & grape tomatoes) shows several fruit flies on the paper already (and a couple are in the vinegar, though you can't see them)--not even three minutes after making the trap! Some kinds of cider vinegar work better than others--typically, I find the darker the vinegar, the better it works. I know some people have said they prefer to use plastic wrap over the top, but I find that the paper cone (though it takes some fiddling to get it to fit just right) works best.

Time 1m

Yield 1 trap

Number Of Ingredients 3

3 -4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 piece of white paper
1 -2 drop liquid dish soap

Steps:

  • Pour apple cider vinegar and drop of dish soap into glass or jar.
  • With the paper, make a cone with a 3/4-1" hole on the bottom. The cone should sit on the glass rim without the tip touching the vinegar. You may have to squeeze-shape the cone a bit to prevent gaps between the paper and rim.
  • Every day or two, switch out the vinegar. (You'll see when it stops being as potent. The flies/gnats will stop going in.).

FRUIT FLY TRAP



Fruit Fly Trap image

I came up with this inexpensive recipe after several attempts to get rid of these pesky critters. They breed very quickly and it's best to get a handle on them ASAP. This recipe is a combination of several recipes and I have found this to be the best! Let me know what you think. We had a bucket of Margarita Mix that unleashed quite a few of these in our house when we opened it.

Provided by Mommy of Five

Categories     Household Cleaner

Time 2m

Yield 1 Trap

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup boiling water
2 teaspoons sugar
1 -2 drop liquid dishwashing soap (not odor eliminating)

Steps:

  • Boil water in the microwave and add sugar. Stir until dissolved. Add vinegar and dishwashing liquid. Stir gently.
  • Whenever we bring home fruit or fresh produce, I make a trap and place it right next to it.
  • As they start to evaporate, I add a bit of water and a drop of dishwashing liquid to each trap once a week or so. I replace each trap every two weeks with a fresh one during peak fruit season.
  • FYI:.
  • I have found placing this solution in a see through bright colored bowl (such as the disposable children's travel bowls) works best. I also place it on a small plate to catch any spills, as this gets sticky. Fruit flies are also attracted to light -- so placing in your window sill is a good choice. In addition to the obvious fruit they are also attracted to trash, dirty dishes, and diapers.

FRUIT FLY/GNAT TRAP



Fruit Fly/Gnat Trap image

I detest any type of bug or fly in my house, so when I saw a newscast regarding fruit flies, my interest perked up quite quickly! (I am the one that runs after everyone to close the screen doors!!) They lay their eggs in and amoungst ripe fruit....so one way to deter this is by washing your fruit right away and storing in the fridge. Obviously....your chances of getting hords of fruit flies are greater if you have fruit trees on your property!! Sorry for you...but this application will definately help relieve you of this burden!!

Provided by Abby Girl

Categories     Household Cleaner

Time 5m

Yield 1 application

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 piece fruit (or a piece of fruit peel, any type)
plastic wrap

Steps:

  • Place a little piece of fruit in a bowl and double cover with some Saran Wrap.
  • With a knife, poke two small holes in the wrap and leave it on the counter for 5 - 7 days (or basically until you can't stand looking at it any more).
  • Discard the fruit (prefereably outside!) and repeat.
