🫙 Trap picker

Fruit fly trap picker

Tell us what you have in the cupboard and we'll pick the trap that fits — with a one-line recipe and a link to the full how-to.

Almost any fermenting bait plus a drop of dish soap will catch fruit flies — the trick is matching what you already have to the right kind of trap. Answer two quick questions for a tailored recipe. Remember: a trap only clears the adults, so find and remove the breeding source at the same time.
