Effective Home Remedies to Combat Pesky Fruit Flies and Clear Drains

A recent viral video demonstrates simple yet effective home remedies to tackle persistent fruit fly infestations and prevent their return. The creator, Bethany, shares a two-part approach focusing on both airborne flies and their breeding grounds in household drains. For active fruit fly populations, the video suggests creating a simple trap. This involves combining apple cider vinegar, a small amount of dish soap, and a splash of honey in a jar. The jar is then covered with plastic wrap, and tiny holes are poked into the top. Fruit flies are attracted to the mixture, enter through the holes, and are pulled down by the dish soap's properties. The second part of the solution addresses fruit fly eggs, which are often laid in drains. To clear these, the video recommends pouring baking soda directly into the drain, followed by white vinegar. This combination creates a foaming reaction that helps to clean the pipes. Finally, boiling hot water is poured down the drain to "fry" any remaining eggs, ensuring a thorough elimination of potential breeding sites. The presenter advises applying these methods to both kitchen and bathroom sinks, as well as bathtubs and showers, for comprehensive results.
