How to clean the drain flies in your house with a nontoxic bug trap? First let’s discuss about the most common natural home solution: apple cider vinegar and dish soap to kill fruit flies. There is a very big issue with these solutions: they don’t work very good. Additionally your house will smell very bad!

Urban legend that doesn’t work very often: Drown the Flies with a Candle Trap Setup! This fruit fly trap only requires a candle. When it gets dark, place a candle on a tray or bowl filled with water then set the tray next to the fly-infested area. Next, turn off the light so that the only light source in the room is the candle (close the curtains to block outside sources of light). This homemade trap will kill the gnats in two ways. First, any fruit flies that get close to the candle flame will get theirs wings burnt and fall to their death. Second, some flies may avoid the actual flame and instead go for the reflection in the water. They won’t be able to escape once they land in the water (adding a few squirts of dish soap will make it near-impossible).

But the issue is that, most of the times, this method doesn’t work, fruit flies will show up again and you will also have a problem with the bad smell from this “natural” solution. Vinegar is a very strong and pungent liquid – it’s just not ok having that available in the house. Especially if there are kids around. Do you want dead flying insects floating around on their kitchen counter, table, bar, or restaurant?

These small, winged insects are commonly found swarming around overripe, unrefrigerated produce in kitchens. They are also frequently spotted around vegetables and near garbage containers. They are also quite fond of beer and wine. It’s not that they crave alcohol – they’re just drawn to any type of fermenting food source. See additional info at Chemical-free fruit fly trap.

Fruit flies prevention tip (it’s easier to prevent!) : Clean the counters and desks: Fruit flies don’t need much to survive and thrive. A crumb here, a spill there, and they’re more than content to subsist indefinitely. If you want these winged terrors to pack up and hit the road once and for all, you’re going to have to deprive them of even that. If you aren’t already, you’re going to have to scrub down your desk every day. Take out your personal trash, too. When you’re done with that, make sure the kitchen is nice and clean before you leave every night. Even if it was someone else’s cleaning week. Yeah, yeah, we know: it’s not fair. But fruit flies don’t play fair, and neither can you. You’ve gotta hit them where it hurts, and where it hurts are those crumbs leftover from the ham sandwich you had for lunch yesterday.
