Do we set traps for them?
They are just swarming around my kitchen.
Even when I cleaned up they didn't go away.
Is it wrong to set a trap for fruit flies?
Even so they don't really work.
In this particular instance I would recommend Frogs!
A few ponds around the veggie patch to draw in the Frogs does wonders, but the frogs will want hidey holes, like shrubs, and logs which mean more trees. I guess you would have to get creative to integrate a forest into the kitchen.
But seriously, at home I have a few funnel web spiders on the window frames that catch all the flies that come in the house. Every so often I just vacuum up all the discarded fly husks, and I try to leave the webs alone.
I have to explain to any visitors that ask to use the bathroom to watch out for the big spider. Might explain why I don't get many visitors.
