Fruit flies and gnats are the ghosts of the pest world—they seem to appear out of nowhere! If you have fruit flies hovering around the trash can or your bunch of bananas…or gnats are haunting your potted plants…here’s a way to get rid of them naturally…
Set out a small plastic container filled with a mixture of one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, six drops of liquid dish detergent and one-half cup of water. The bugs will fly in, but they won’t fly out.
If you are serving up a big bowl of fruit for guests or family and you don’t want a bowl of vinegar hanging around, disperse a bunch of mint leaves among the fruit in the bowl. Fruit flies hate mint and will depart early from your party.
