– The funnel trick is a magic trap for fruit flies, and it’s kind of a fun DIY project. – Start by grabbing a tall vase or jar to use as your base container. – Next, you’ll need to choose your fruit fly bait. Fruit flies go after anything sugary.
– Now, roll a piece of paper to create a funnel shape, and tape it so that it keeps its form. – Stick the narrow end through the top of your base container so that the funnel is resting in the opening. – Finally, set your fruit fly trap near the infested area – perhaps near your fruit bowl, garbage, or sink. – There's a similar method but with a little less crafting. All you need do is put ripe or rotten fruit in the bottom of a medium or large bowl. – Throw in a sweet liquid as well, maybe soda or syrup.
– Cover the bowl as tightly as possible with plastic or Saran wrap. Grab a fork and poke holes around the top of the wrap.
– This is the same idea as the funnel method – we’re luring the fruit flies to a bait that they can get to while making it harder for them to escape.
– Take 2 medium-sized jars and fill them with fruit rinds and peels. Cover the mouths of your jars with clear stretchy plastic wrap. – Poke a small hole, perhaps with a toothpick, in the middle of the dents; this is where the fruit flies will enter the trap.
– When you notice fruit flies in one jar, put it in the freezer. This will freeze the flies and their eggs! – The one sure-fire way to prevent fruit flies in the first place is to store your fruit properly. – Once the fruit is ripe, it’ll last much longer when refrigerated. – Even if your bananas are black on the outside, still try refrigerating them – this may save the tasty inside.
– Citrus fruits like oranges and grapefruit stop ripening after they’re picked, so these can stay in the fridge for up to 3 weeks. Music by Epidemic Sound https://www.epidemicsound.com/ Subscribe to Bright Side : https://goo.gl/rQTJZz
