How to get rid of Fruit Flies
Following these simple recommendations will go a long way in halting
or reducing Fruit Fly activity:
- Keep all areas clean - sweep or vacuum floors often; don't
leave ANY dirty dishes around (if you don't have time to wash them,
rinse them or keep them in soapy water); keep countertops and tables
clean, clean crumbs from toaster
- Put away/contain/seal/close up ALL food; eliminate access to it;
If you have fruit or any other type of food that you normally keep
out, make sure to cover it with a slightly damp cloth, or better yet
- seal it well
- Pour a little soapy water down your drains often, and leave the
suds sit
- Keep organic garbage in your home covered and sealed; on the
outside, place your large green bin (a.k.a. the big lunch box for pests)
as far from your residence as possible
- Reduce the Relative Humidity in your home
