Home made fruit fly trap

Home made fruit fly trap


Now I must thank my 3 year old son for this discovery. he woke up at some ungodly hour last week, and fixed himself some “breakfast” by putting some licorice in one of those diet shakers and half filled it with water.

My wife noticed the little Fruit fly that have inundated our house recently were going crazy for it. We have left it out and it has been a fruit fly killing machine, they are climbing in the holes in the top  becoming trapped and falling in the water.
