You can catch more flies with viniger....
Nov. 14th, 2002 02:17 pmWe had a fruit fly problem recently (it is mostly under control now.)
Admittedly I didn't have any honey around, but I did have a shaker of distilled white viniger sitting out on a shelf. It has a just bigger than a fruitfly size hole in the top.
I found the bottle a twisted suspention of dead fruit flies all floating at different levels in the bottle. They must have been attracted to the smell, because there were more than just a few, probably about 50 or so.
They are really hard to wash out of the bottle, too. Their small wings cling to the side when wet.
