I took note of all the suggestions re the elimination of fruit flies and wanted to go with the apple cider vinegar and dish soap but I had no vinegar.
I took some peach peelings and set them in a sandwich baggie with dish soap all around the peelings and left it on the counter overnight....the fucking thing was plastered with dumb retarded flies that couldn't get out of the bag and settled in the soap.
There were a lot of flies that died that night and I was happy.
Many who contributed their advice on how to eradicate the fruit fly pestilence did so in a very impressively professional manner, a manner in which is worthy of a Nobel Prize for alchemy, or, a cameo appearance in a Three Stooges episode.
I just can't state enough about how grateful I am that none of us are related...yet.
Here's another one: If you have honey bees or some other bee that you don't want to kill in your yard, built a nest on the garage, etc, then use your sprayer and fill it 80/20 with water/white vinegar and it won't kill the bees but they do not like it and will fuck off. If you want to kill them then use what I do; That 20 foot wasp spray. It brings genocide. I use it instead of pepper spray.
@x0x7...I'm no stranger to fruit flies, they're a fact of life and have their place in the food chain, the wife is a bird, animal and nature nut, and she's deadly accurate at 200yrds with her caliber .17WSM Savage, anyways she's got humming bird feeders all over our wrap around porch and we'll watch the humming birds pick off fruit flies, half of this entire area I'm in is old apple and pear orchard, a century of fruit which is why the wildlife is so abundant, fuck I've got everything out here ie moose, deer, BEAR, coyotes, we have 3 Timberwolves and blah blah blah, everything, but the insect nuisance was part of life, today these fuckers are everywhere...when I posted about the fruit flies I was in Toronto in the company RV 5 minutes from my crane, Fridays I come back home, but I keep the place clean, I even keep the garbage outside and whatever fruit and veg I have are in the fridge or covered on the counter, and the AC is always on cold...the thing is that the fucking things are everywhere, even in the crane shop where everything is grease, oils, fuels etc etc etc and these bastards are larger than the common fruit flie and they bite, also, just this year I've noticed a strain of mosquitos that are fucking huge, at least 3 times larger than our typical skitters and they're black not the common brown and do they ever take a lot of blood. and that's it.

Amazing! No wasps, flies, mosquitos or fruit flies when I'm out there lifting weights.
Got them on Amazon.
