They are just great, aren't they? It's amazing just how quickly they appear. Throw the fruit into an outside rubbish bin and they should take up residence there provided you don't have any other fruit about.

You keep birds don't you? If so, DON'T use insect spray - it will kill your parakeets within a few minutes.

If you wanna have some fun light up a candle or three and place them
in a few rooms. Put a plate or aluminum foil under it and watch
the flies set themselves ablaze. Fruit flie are a little dense. Also
put some sugar water a the base and they will drown themselves also.
or just buy some fly paper.

Catch some and put them in a jar. You'll ge some funny mmtations over time

Or just don't give them any food. What were you thinking not finishing those healthy bananas and other various fruits? It's good for you [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Flying protein. Let them land on your fruit and then eat them. Healthy, balanced ,and complete. Or just take the fruit away.
