For white vinegar, you can make a trap in which the fruit flies will come diving right into it.

  • Get a jar or a glass and pour some amount of white vinegar into it.
  • Get a plastic wrap and make some holes on it then cover the jar with it.
  • You can use rubber bands to seal the edges and keep the plastic wrap in place.
  • Add a few drops of dish soap to the white vinegar which will help keep the flies stuck and not able to crawl out.
  • The fruit flies will be attracted to the white vinegar scent and crawl into the jar but won’t be able to get out once they’re inside.
  • You can also use apple cider vinegar in place for white vinegar and use the same procedure. Also, you could try with pieces of fruits, for example, bananas for the same procedure.
