How do you get rid of fruit flies in the kitchen?
Manage episode 438024953 series 3362640
These tiny insects, which reproduce at an astonishing rate, often invade our kitchens. They are particularly attracted to damp areas, stagnant water, organic waste, and ripe fruit—especially in warm weather.
Fruit flies, or midges, can lay up to 100 eggs a day. While studies indicate that flies can carry bacteria, viruses, and parasites, the midges in our homes are generally harmless. They can transmit bacteria and minor food-borne viruses, but rarely cause serious diseases. This is reassuring, but it doesn’t mean we want them around!
So, how can you get rid of them? Are they a health hazard? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
