How can I get rid of fruit flies from my house?

Throw away any rotten food, especially fruit. Take out the trash. Clean your house.

Put up some fly tape in the area where you see them the most. Eventually, they'll get caught and die. Also, make sure you don't have any fruit or food out in the open for awhile. Remove their food source and that will do them in, too. Of course, you could also spray insecticide, but I don't much care for that approach myself.

Pour a small amount of red wine in a small glass bowl, and cover with saran wrap. Poke a few small holes in the top, and put where the flies are most abundant. The flies crawl in, drink the wine, drown, and die. When the bottom of the bowl is covered in dead flies, clean it out, refill and put back as many times as needed until they are all gone. Good luck.

Get rid of old fruit. apple cores banana peels, then spray your garbage cans with a bug killer!

put fruit outside.. no jk.. call an exterminator

Get rid of the fruit!

get a can of flying killing spray

I had the same problem at work and now at home due to my dad making homemade wine with some hand picked grapes that we brought home one day from a farm. Heres an easy, cheap way that you can get rid of them by just using some household items. In order to get rid of these things, make sure that you don't leave any food out in the open by putting them in containers. Especially with fruits since they rot faster in room temperature and it will give them a place to breed. Fruit flies don't live for very long, but food out in the open is always a good breeding ground for them and you will find them increase exponentially. Second, you'll need something with a narrow opening; that way they will get in easily but have a harder time getting out. Then put two packets/ two teaspoon of sugar in it, fill a little less than half of it with apple cider vinegar (NOT distilled or it will not work), and a few droplets of dish soap. Make however many you need and put them in the problem areas. If you don't have anything with a narrow opening, you can use a paper/plastic cup that's been wrapped with saran wrap with a few holes poked in it and a rubber band to keep it in place, or you can put a funnel over a jar. And if you don't have any apple vinegar, anything sweet will do like wine, champaign,beer, even fruit with sugary water; it's what attracted these things to my home in the first place. Once that is done, CLEAN! While the fruit flies may be gone, it doesn't mean that their eggs aren't. Fruit fly eggs are tough, and if you don't clean the house, you may find them back again ten days later (which is the gestation period of the egg). Use bleach or ammonia to clean your house with and a vacuum with a hose to get to those corner areas. Use that to also pour it down your drain. Also, don't forget to take out the garbage since it is also a breeding ground for these things. Believe me, this works really well. I have done this not that long ago and put it at the source of the problem, and five minutes later it was swarmed with live, and dead, fruit flies. Or if you're really impatient, make the cup version, don't saran wrap it, wait a bit for them to swarm to it, then take a bottle of Raid and spray like crazy. :) Hope this helps!

ddt is what you need. remember that song by counting crows?
