They can live on the slime inside a sink drain.
They can flourish on a sour mop.
They'll eat damp flour or food fermenting quietly in a crack in the floor.
They've even proven capable of existing on a diet of alcohol fumes.
And in their eight-day life cycle, they breed prolifically. .
In one year, a fly can produce a dynasty that, packed in a ball, would fill the void between the Earth and the Sun.
How to destroy them:
Construct a trap by placing a paper funnel (rolled from a sheet of notebook paper) into a jar which is then baited with a few ounces of cider vinegar. Place the jar trap(s) wherever fruit flies are seen. This simple but effective trap will soon catch any remaining adult flies which can then be killed or released outdoors. (haha, released...yes, let's release them so they can come right back inside and lay millions of eggs on our fuzzy peaches)
