How to kill fruit flies

Are you being plagued by those tiny buggers that settle on everything and seem to swarm around the kitchen and want just to wipe them all out?
Look no further.  Here are 2 satisfying ways to wipe them out.
First make sure they can't come in to your house anymore.  Make sure your bin has a lid and all the usual stuff.

1) Microwave

Leave some fruit bits on a plate in the microwave with the door open.  When it is speckled with flies slam the door shut and give them a good 3-4 minutes on high power.  It's not the most efficient but is somehow satisfying.

2) Drowning.

Flies like cider or apple juice.  So get a shallow bowl and put some in with a few drops of washing up liquid. then top up to the brim with water.  And just wait.  Because of the washing up liquid they can't get out of the water and drown.

See here the decimation caused in 2 hours.....Mwa ha ha haa....
all the black dots at the bottom are dead flies


Leave a few of these traps near your bin, fruit bowl etc...
