Ingredients in a Homemade Fruit Fly Trap:

•  A glass jar •  Plastic wrap •  Jar rim or rubber band •  Apple Cider Vinegar •  Liquid Dish Soap

01.

Take the glass jar and pour some apple cider vinegar into it. I usually use about 1/4 cup or less.

Next, cover the jar with the plastic wrap or lid. Whichever you use, make sure to poke some small holes into the plastic cover or lid at the top of the jar.

03.

In the middle of the lid or cover, make a bigger hole. Creating holes will allow for the fruit flies to take in the scent which will attract them to the jar.

Add a few drops of dish soap to the jar, this will help keep the fruit flies trapped in when they fly through the hole.
