I'll let you in on a little secret. The best fruit fly trap by far, that is. You get bottle, somewhat tall, with a long neck. You the roll up a piece of paper into a funnel so it's long a narrow with the "small" end's opening being about the size of a pea or so. The "large" end of the funnel should have a size of about a golf ball or maybe a quarter. You then pour in about an inch of Apple cider vinegar which is certainly the best bait for fruit flys. Place the funnel into the bottle, small end first, so that the tip of the paper is only about an inch away from the surface of the vinegar... this should leave most of the paper funnel being inside the bottle. There you have it! The fruit flys fly into the funnel to get to the vinegar, then they come out of the small end of the funnel into the bottle and cannot find their way back out. Eventually they just die and fall into the vinegar. IMPORTANT: you must replace the paper funnel after a couple of weeks because the paper will absorb the scent and the flies will just hang out on the paper... also when transporting the bottle DO NOT splash it around where the vinger gets onto the funnel.... for the same reason obviously. Put up one or two of these traps and you'll see the difference! Hope this helps!
