The first trick is based on the use of apple cider vinegar:
Flies cannot resist the aroma produced by fermentation. In fact, the product used is based on fermented apples, so flies cannot keep their distance from the vinegar.
For better effectiveness, you can heat the apple cider vinegar as the heat releases the scent of the vinegar.
You will need a glass and a piece of paper rolled up in the shape of a funnel, 12 cl of apple cider vinegar, a few drops of dishwashing liquid and you can decide whether or not to add a piece of ripe fruit.
After heating the apple cider vinegar, pour it into the glass and add the drops of dish detergent. The latter reduces the surface tension of the vinegar.
Then place the funnel in the glass, with a hole in the bottom to let the flies in. Once inside, they will not be able to get out and will drown.
If they don’t drown, you can put the glass in the freezer for 20 minutes.
The fruit trap consists of the following ingredients: cling film, a glass, ripe fruit, a toothpick and soapy water.
Place the pieces of fruit in the glass and seal it with the film pierced with a toothpick.
Place it in strategic points of the house so that flies enter through the holes and cannot escape. Finally, immerse the glass full of flies in a container of warm, soapy water for 10 minutes.
