The Flyest Fruit Fly Trap Ever! – [Dr. Sista-Thang-Says!]

Posted on August 9, 2015 by Sarah

Guess what…. I can actually buy fruit now! I no longer have to worry about those super-annoying, super-gross fruit flies! (And yes, I actually quit buying fruit because of this!) — My Sista-Thang actually passed this one on to me, and it works soooo good! Thanks SO much Michelle, for sharing this awesome secret with us! 🙂

What you’ll need:

– 1/4 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar

– 1 Tspn of Dish Detergent

– 1 Glass

– Saran Wrap

All you need to do is mix the Apple Cider Vinegar with the Dish Detergent in the glass. Next cover the glass with Saran Wrap and poke some holes in it. And — That’s it! (Seriously!)

How it works: The Apple Cider Vinegar attracts the pesky fruit flies into the glass through the holes in the Saran Wrap. Once the fruit fly is in there the Dish Detergent weighs the little guy down, and the sucker is TRAPPED! Yes! Awesome! 🙂
