While I do agree most people are hypocrites, I don't agree on this particular subject.

I have two German Shepherds, if they were feral, they'd be hunting and killing to survive. Since they are instead my pets, I provide their food to them, as a good pack leader should.

Just used some soy sauce and little bits came out with the sauce, on closer inspection these bits were fruit flies! Yuk, I've been using it for months, I feel sick now. Fruit flies are not native to the UK and I've had an infestation the last few weeks. Anyone know how to get rid of them? I've tried allsorts. They seem immune to fly spray :/

that made me nauseated and a little paranoid about my own soy sauce now lol

I've noticed a few fruit flies in my apartment and at work. There doesn't seem to be anything to get rid of them. Only thing I do is just make sure i have no dishes in the sink,run the dishwasher regularly whether it's full or not,empty the trash every day and swat the little buggers when i see them.

I feel your pain, I had to fight off a fruit fly infestation recently. I had to stop leaving dishes in the sink (bad habit of mine). And I bought a container for all my fruit that doesn't go in the fridge. Then I poured some bleach down the drains in my sink/garbage disposal just in case there were some of the buggers down there.

Seems to have wiped them out.

It'll be so awesome though once you get comfortable :-)

I learned how to drive in a manual transmission sports car...my stepfather made me come to a stop on a hill, there were about 10 cars behind me...and he says, "if you drift back and hit the person behind you,it's your fault.Drive."



Needless to say, i burnt lots of rubber from that first pull out;-)

Clean EVERYTHING - cover all fruit - don't keep food scraps in the house - clean out the sink and make sure there is no placid water sitting around - make a trap to catch the flies that are already around.

I hate it. I failed my second test about 2 hours ago. It was terrible. I'm beginning to think I'll never pass now
