    Hello, I use hot shot no pest strips that I got at lowes. When I used to bar-tend, we used them because the beer tap would get the fruit flies. They work really well. Here is a link so that you can see what they look like. https://www.amazon.com/Hot-Shot-No-Pest-Strip2-HG-5580/dp/B0019BK8AG

    make a trap...disposable jar think mayo...apple cider vinegar and an over ripe piece of fruit. Make a cone from a piece of paper..tiny hole on the small end. The fruit flies go in ..not out. Put small end into the jar.

    This is what I do, wash all fruit and vegies when you bring them home and store all in the refrig except bananas. If there were any eggs on the produce they are now in the drain, to address this problem put 1/2 cup of baking soda in each kitchen drain and follow with 1 cup vinegar. When the fizzing stops rinse well with hot water for a min or so, cover the drains with a stopper. For the airborne ones, take a mice sticky cardboard trap and cut 1 in half with the plastic cover on it, peel off the plastic cover off 1 of these halves and place a piece of decaying fruit in the center of it, that will draw them. They will land and that ends the cycle.
