Tips on how to get rid of fruit fly

Tips

 * A potted plant can be free of fruit flies by allowing the dirt to dry completely between waterings. This kills most of the larvae; the adults don't live long and will soon be gone. Take extra care to check soil for dryness and promptly re-water plants with stiff leaves because they will often become dry and die.
 * When using vinegar, make sure you choose the right type of vinegar. White vinegar does not work. Malt vinegar and red wine work, just not as well as cider. Beer sometimes works too, as does balsamic vinegar. Wine works extremely well, and a wine bottle with an inch or so left can be used without an additional funnel.
 * Cover liquor bottles that have a pour spout on them with a small sheet of cellophane. Clean bottles below the spout with an ammonia based cleaner, every other day.
 * Hang a few old flypaper rolls over the area of infestation. It's ugly, but effective.  These can be poisonous though, depending on what kind you use. Use with caution and keep out of reach of children.
 * Fruit flies also lay eggs in pet fecal matter. Be sure to clean up any pet messes as soon as possible.
