it made me go crazy on them with lysol, a rolled up newspaper and paper towels. It was ugly.

actually, vinegar is better than honey, I did an experiment . but water is even better.
trying to get rid of fruit flies!
hahaha...ahhh
oh I hate fruit flies, but have been told if you put a slice of orange in a jar, they'll go in & you can then close the jar.
Also, saw this for my own eyes, if you're out on the porch BBQ'ing and eating outside, take 1 gallon ziplock bags, fill about 1/2 full of
water & hang them around the area you're eating and the flies will NOT bother you.
We did this at my Dad's once. We had set up a long table under the carport & put these bags all around and not 1 single fly bothered us

why that works.
I don't know. I don't know if it distorts their vision so it's intimidating but it was nice to eat outdoors w/no flies
They do that all over Korea.
oh wow, thanks for the tip. amazing about the water bags
