Fruit Flies No More!
I know I mentioned this concoction in one of my recent posts about various uses for apple cider vinegar, but I can’t help but mention it again and SHOW you the visible damage this mixture can do!
In the summer, we eat a LOT of fruits. We typically have a few different types of fruits sitting out on our counter at any given time. Within hours of bringing the fruit into our house, there are fruit flies. Yes, I could store all the fruit in the refrigerator, but there is something about leaving it out on the counter and being able to snack on fruit instead of something that is not as healthy. Hence my desire to leave fruit out in the open. With that decision, comes the pain of fruit flies. I have heard that there are various ways to get rid of them, but this BY FAR is the BEST solution I have ever found. It is a go-to and I will never go back!
Fruit Fly Concoction:
1 small container
Small amount of apple cider vinegar (enough to cover bottom of container)
Few drops of liquid dish soap
Mix together with a few strokes and set out in the open on the counter where fruit flies are most prevalent.
Within half an hour, you will see fruit flies flying around the container. Then they will sit on the edge of the container (as if they question whether they should take the plunge) and then BAM, they do, and they are toast. The life of a fruit fly and this concoction.
Let me know if you try this and let me know the results!
Do you have any other ideas on how to get rid of fruit flies?
