Homemade Fruit Fly Trap

May 31, 2010 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy 4 Comments

Fruit Flies are so annoying. They seem to come from nowhere, and they won’t leave!

For a few years, I’ve used a homemade fruit fly trap.

I put a small piece of fruit or fruit peel in a small glass bowl. I tightly cover with plastic wrap. That’s why the bowl has to be glass, so you can get a tight seal. I then make a couple of holes in the plastic wrap with the tip of a sharp knife.

The fruit flies fly in, but the can’t get out!

I then take it outside to dispose of the fruit and the flies.

I recently discovered another fruit fly trap at Passionate Homemaking

I will be trying one this summer, when the fruit flies are most annoying.

    Here's a tip: A bit of vinegar or wine in the bottom of that glass will attract even more fruit flies than a piece of fruit! Very effective fruit fly trap. (can you tell I hate fruit flies too?) 🙂

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
