Is anyone else sick of those pesky little things flying around? AUgH... they drive me nuts. Last night, while in the kitchen, Mace & I couldn't take it any longer so where do we turn for inspiration, advice & HeLP. You guessed it, Pinterest.

We found a few different sites, did what they said & Wa-LaH!! The little flies are all trapped & not bugging us this morning. {Hallelujah!}
All you need to make your own fruit fly catcher is:
-apple cider vinegar
-dish soap
-piece of paper
-mason jar
-small piece of fruit
Pour 1/3 C. Apple Cider Vinegar into a mason jar. Cut a small piece of banana & place in the bottom of the jar & add a drop or two of dish soap.
Then take a piece of paper & fold it into a cone shape, with a small point at the bottom & stick into the mason jar. The point is the fruit flies go into the jar but are not able to find their way out again.
Hope this helps you & your sanity this fall in the kitchen. Such a great time of year to enjoy such great fruit & veggies.

Great tip! We've had a herd of fruit flys this year. Mimi
