I had started using a product that prevents fruit flies. Its main job is keeping your fruit fresher longer. Clearly Fresh Bags. Someone gave me one to try, and I LOVE them. They really work well at not only keeping fruit fresh longer on the counter, but I also use it to keep my salad fresh in the fridge. :) They are my new favorite product.

I've done extensive cleaning of my kitchen area and put some red wine vinegar in a jar with the paper cone. And nothing seems to kill them. I even bought some fly tape and hung it in the area where many of the flies seem to be coming from but that's only got one or two. They're driving me crazy, especially since I live in an efficiency studio where my kitchen is basically my bedroom area. There are less than there used to be but it still grosses me out. Any ideas?

When I had fruit flies in my kitchen hovering over my fruit I sprayed the area and the fruit and they disappeared after one spray. Completely non-toxic. I used a teaspoon of pure Neem and 2 cups of water in a spray bottle. Two problems solved! I had a problem with aphids on my roses until I sprayed with a Neem oil solution.

Cover tightly with plastic wrap, then poke a few - maybe 5 or 6 small holes in the wrap with a fork. Enjoy the wine (that's the fun part!) with dinner and wake up to some glasses of floating fruit flies in the morning.
