What causes fruit flies i cant get rid of them?


Question:i cant get rid of the fruit flies i dont know where they came from and tried some viniger and dish soap and even sprayed but they are still here

Answers:
Fruit flies are attracted to fruit but moisture as well. We had a huge fruit fly problem and could not find the root of it. Turns out they were living in a plant that was being overwatered. Once the plant was gone, so were the fruit flies. Do you have any areas in the house that might have extra moisture? If so - eliminate them.


ummm...fruit maybe. Get rid of the fruit. They are usually attracted to bananas. Place your bananas elsewhere.
Fruit flies live in your drain. Weird, huh. Pour some bleach down your drain and watch them disappear.
If that doesn't work, there is a commercial product designed to get rid of the nasty creatures. I don't remember what it's called, but it goes down the drain, too.
Yuck.
Fruit flies come from fruit that is beginning to spoil, the best way to prevent this is to store the fruit in the refrigerator, or in some cases a paper bag.
