How do you get rid of the little flying bugs around your fruits in the house?

Answer 1

Answer

You are probably making reference to the common fruit fly "drosophila melanogaster", or to one of the many species in the genus "drosophila". There is a wonderful article in Wikipedia. This will at least give you a direction in searching for ways to eliminate them. A link is provided.

Answer 2:

First. Remove all fruit from the area or just stick it in the fridge. Take a banana peel and a gallon jug. Place the peel in the jug and most of the flies will join it, usually over night. For the ones in flight, I hit with a solution of dish soap and water in a spray bottle about 25% soap and 75% water. This makes their wings stick to their bodies and they fall to the ground.

ANSWER 3: Citronella is very good for repelling insects like flies. You can get it in candle and essentiall oil form.

Answer 4

Cover your fruit with a cloth or cover. It probably wont stop them coming but you can just spray them with bug spray.

answer 5 TRy putting about one inch of vinegar in the bottom of a glass, then take a piece of paper and roll it into a funnel shape the larger end being the same size as the top of the glass. place the funnel into the glass leaving the small end about an inch above the vinegar. the fruit flies will fly down the cone and into the glass, and will be trapped in the glass eventually falling into the vinegar to die. when you catch some compare them to a picture on the internet to be sure they are in fact fruit flies and not another species of filth fly. e.i ( phorid fly, moth fly, drain fly.

Answer 2

The most economical option is to eat them
