But they’re too fast and nobody has time to try and get them all one by one. 

Luckily, one woman has revealed the nifty trick she uses to get rid of them quickly. Not only is it easy, but it’s also very cheap to do it too. 

“What’s up buttercup,” she said as the video started. “I absolutely hate fruit flies in my kitchen, it drives me nuts.” 

Desarae then vowed to show the nifty hack she used to use in the restaurant industry that was both low effort and effective. 

“Worked every single time, especially at Subway, because having all that produce out fruit flies were a magnet for it,” she went on. 

Explaining that it’s “super simple”, the woman said you just need to place the concoction by the sink. 

Before you head off to bed, you chuck it in the sink and run hot water with a “shot of bleach” to clean it all away. 

“All you need is a little cup,” she then said, launching into the process. “Some apple cider vinegars.” 

Producing some cling film, she continued: “I like to do a couple of sheets of Saran wrap… I don’t know, I’ve just always done it that way. 

“I feel like you can get it a little bit tighter. I just pull it under and then like twist the edge so it’s nice and tight on top. 

“Ideally you would use a rubber band. I can’t find one, so we’re using a hair tie.”

TikTok user @cooking_comedy_chaos then used a toothpick to punch holes into the cling film.

“Put this right by your sink and the fruit flies are going to go right next to it, because that’s where they want to be,” she said.

“They smell the sweetness of the apple cider vinegar. That’s all you gotta do. There you go, fruit fly trap. I hate those things, they’re disgusting.” 

People flocked to the comments section to share their thoughts as one person wrote: “Yes! I do this too, but the extra layers of plastic wrap are a good tip!” 

Another said: “Done that for years, it does work,” to which she replied: “It’s the only trick I do, the traps they sell suck bad,” with a crying with laughter emoji.

While a third added: “I actually tried this last year when I had a really bad fruit fly problem and I was amazed at how well this actually worked.” 

The TikTok user replied: “It’s a trick we always used. Health department would sometimes fail you on inspection if there were too many.”
