    Hi Victor, sorry you are dealing with the pesky fruit flies. We had a round of their nastiness earlier this year. We took a plastic water bottle, cut off the top about 2 inches down, Put the part you drink from down into the bottle and added orange juice. The flies go in but can't get out. Hope this helps you.

    The vinegar trap in the covered glass jar a cup has always worked for me.

    Per link below

    “Get Rid of Fruitflies with a Homemade Fruit Fly Trap. Pour just enough cider vinegar to cover the bottom of the jar. Add a drop of dish soap (it will break the surface tension of the vinegar so the fruit flies can't just sit atop the liquid). Now, cover the jar with plastic wrap and poke a few holes in the top.”
