    You can use Blended up Beets to attract flies, fruit flies, gnats and mosquitoes, they are all attracted to the Beet Juice for different reasons. Mosquitoes can smell the Geosmin that is in the Beet Juice from up to a mile away. Geosmin signals the presence of rain water which is also valuable information to various flies, Beets are a catch-all.

      Great video. Fwiw, I don't think the vinegar "kills" beyond drowning them. Adding a drop of dish soap to it makes the vinegar drown them faster (so they can't use surface tension to land).

    🤷 Either my fly problem isn't as bad as I think or the flies are way too smart in my yard.
    I've tried red wine vinegar & rotten strawberries, water/ dish soap & fish scraps, even fly paper surrounding a bowl filled with honey water. The flies just won't fall for any of it! 🤦

    That gave me an idea to use my clear empty hummus container. I put vinegar, lemon extract and syrup inside and outside the lid with a hole big enough for the house fly to fit through it. Give it patience like waiting for birds to find the new feed stalk. I caught a lot in it.

    My boyfriend saw a video somewhere so we used cheap syrup and a banana in a plastic container with holes poked in lid. The trap is working great. But my question is how do you dispose of it? Not all of the flies are 100% dead.

      If the flies can fly into small holes to get the fruit, why can't they simply fly back out thru the small hole(s) again?

    • @MrNagano00
      @MrNagano00 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@shippermd the shape of the bottles makes it so flies walk (rather than fly) into the receptacle. They can get out, it's just so much easier for them to get in. It's a similar principle to crab traps.

      For the big outdoors flies I found that yeast and water mixture worked best

    I was watching my vegetable garden to see what insects pollinate their flowers, and I didn't see bees. I saw ants and flies. Some people kill ants and flies. 😂
    When asked to describe insect species that can pollinate flowers, most people think of bees, butterflies, moths, and hummingbirds. However, flies are critical pollinators in both natural and agricultural systems. A recent analysis of crop species found that flies visited 72% of the 105 crops studied (bees visited 93%). Aug 26, 2021
    So, before you decimate all the ants and flies in your garden, think of your vegetable flowers that are waiting to be pollinated.
