Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

We don't eat fresh fruit fast enough sometimes, and we end up with fruit flies in the kitchen. The Mrs. usually puts some wine in a glass and covers the top with plastic wrap, punches some small holes in the top, and the flies are attracted to the wine and can get into the glass but not get out. We don't always have wine we want to "waste" that way, so we keep a few of these jars of Fly Punch on hand, and they do work for us. Most recently I counted 14 fruit flies floating the "juice" in the Fly Punch from this last week. Some people say this doesn't work for them. I wonder (1) if they actually have fruit flies and not some other type of gnat, and (2) if they have an infestation in their kitchen sink that needs to be dealt with along with setting out the Fly Punch jar. This was an issue at a wine shop where I worked, and if the drain continues to hatch flies, you can have 100 of these jars sitting around and still have a fruit fly problem. Here is how to get rid of them in your drain, too, and use them with the Fly Punch to end the infestation all around. 1. Pour a 1/2 cup of salt, 1/2 cup of baking soda and 1 cup of vinegar and allow it to work its magic overnight. 2. Follow up with boiling water the next morning. ... 3. Pour a half gallon of water and 1 cup of vinegar or bleach down the drain to sanitize. 4. Pour boiling water down the drain to loosen rotting matter.
