Introduction:
Fruit flies can be annoying and multiply quickly around your kitchen. Fortunately, you can get rid of them fast with this simple homemade trap that works in just 4 minutes. Using common household ingredients, you’ll clear out those pesky flies in no time!
Ingredients:
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar
A few drops of dish soap
A small jar or bowl
Plastic wrap (optional)
A toothpick or fork (if using plastic wrap)
Instructions:
Pour the apple cider vinegar into the jar or bowl.
Add the sugar and stir gently to dissolve.
Add a few drops of dish soap — this breaks the surface tension so flies can’t escape.
(Optional) Cover the jar with plastic wrap and poke a few small holes using a toothpick or fork.
Place the trap near the area where fruit flies gather (kitchen counter, near the fruit bowl, trash can, etc.).
Wait about 4 minutes and watch the fruit flies get trapped and drown.
