I’m kinda intimidated by this whole thread. I’m scared to mention that I really hate thawed bread (I tried room temp, microwave, oven and toaster). (I even tried different freezers.) If I buy bread, then it’s either the very smallest amount at the bakery when I really feel like good bread, or just a bun, or supermarket bread with preservatives. But mostly I just live a bread free life.
So the tip is inside and not touching the vinegar (there is a 1-2 cm distance between the tip and vinegar?), right? How wide is the opening on the tip? And can’t the flies (at least some) fly out of it again back through the same opening?
I’ve also heard something about adding a splash of soap so that they fall into the water, can that help?
I’ve tried traps like that but mostly just with vinegar and a drop of dish soap (and no fancy cone installation) but somehow my flies ignored it. Or never fell into it I don’t know. So now I refrigerate all my fruit (even the exotic ones) in the summertime :( I’ll be happy to give it a try. Can it be normal vinegar though?
