Re: Fruit Flies!!

Fruit flies? Could they be fungus gnats? I don't think they live long but have repeated generations so it seems so. Clear out all possible sources. Check for breeding places like moist potted plants. Drench w gnatrol. Sticky lures help but don't go to the source.

Help! For the first time in my life, my home is infested with fruit
flies. Any suggestions as to dealing with them, short of fumigating
the house? (Not an option, because of the fish and amphibians.) Would
some kind of sticky lure work?
