Mission accomplished! I’ve been blog hoppin’ for the last few days trying to find answers to my fruit fly fiasco (because blog hoppin’ is much easier, a more productive use of my time, more fun than googling!) and thanks to the WFMW plea from $5 Dinners, I think I finally found it!
Apple Cider Vinegar + Dish Soap = Frugal Fruit Fly Feast
Frugal Fruit Fly Feast = Dead Fruit Flies
There you have it. No specific measurements… just pour some vinegar and squirt some soap. Instant deadly attraction.

Yes! It worked for me too! Yeah for an easy way of ridding the little pests! It’s also nice to know I’m not the only one on the front lines against fruit flies!
Way to go!
How cool! Thanks for sharing!
hummm…wonder if just white vinegar would work??!! I got fruit flies too and only white vinegar!
Thanks for sharing your tactical battle plan!
Wonderful! Thank you!
Blessings,

This is awesome. With our juicer not always getting cleaned right away (it’s like my least favorite job), fruit flies definitely get out of hand.
Thanks for the comment on my blog:) look forward to reading more of your posts.
I’ve done it with red wine vinegar, but A/C vinegar is cheaper…and I never thought of adding dishsoap! Thanks, I’m definitely going to do this!
Awesome I’ve been having the same problem and we tried a few things but not that one. Can’t wait to try. Thank you
THIS IS AWESOME! I’m trying it right away. The fruit flies have been driving me CRAZY.
