Diy Fly Trap Indoor

To make a simple DIY fly trap indoor, you will need:

• A plastic bottle (e.g., a 2-liter soda bottle)
• Vinegar
• Sugar
• Dish soap
• Water
• Honey or syrup (optional)

Instructions:

1. Cut the top third of the plastic bottle off.
2. Pour a cup of vinegar and two tablespoons of sugar into the bottom half of the bottle.
3. Add a few drops of dish soap and a cup of water.
4. Invert the top third of the bottle and insert it into the bottom half, creating a funnel.
5. Secure the top half in place with tape.
6. Spread honey or syrup around the mouth of the bottle to attract flies.
7. Place the trap in a location where flies are common.

The flies will be attracted to the sweet smell of the vinegar and sugar, and they will enter the trap through the funnel. Once inside, they will be unable to escape due to the slippery dish soap.

To empty the trap, simply remove the top half and pour out the contents. Be sure to rinse the trap well before using it again.

Tips:

• Use apple cider vinegar for the best results.
• Add a few pieces of rotting fruit to the trap to make it even more attractive to flies.
• Place the trap in a sunny spot. Flies are attracted to warmth.
• Empty the trap regularly to prevent it from becoming overloaded with flies.
