FRUIT FLY/GNAT TRAP
This will help take care of those fruit flies that gather around the stuff you have to take out to the compost pile or those bananas you haven't gotten around to baking with yet. The photo I posted (the one with the cherry & grape tomatoes) shows several fruit flies on the paper already (and a couple are in the vinegar, though you can't see them)--not even three minutes after making the trap! Some kinds of cider vinegar work better than others--typically, I find the darker the vinegar, the better it works. I know some people have said they prefer to use plastic wrap over the top, but I find that the paper cone (though it takes some fiddling to get it to fit just right) works best.

Steps:
- Pour apple cider vinegar and drop of dish soap into glass or jar.
- With the paper, make a cone with a 3/4-1" hole on the bottom. The cone should sit on the glass rim without the tip touching the vinegar. You may have to squeeze-shape the cone a bit to prevent gaps between the paper and rim.
- Every day or two, switch out the vinegar. (You'll see when it stops being as potent. The flies/gnats will stop going in.).

HOW TO GET RID OF GNATS FOR GOOD - THIS OLD HOUSE
From thisoldhouse.com
- Make a DIY Gnat Trap. Trying to figure out how to catch gnats? The most popular option is a vinegar trap, which is simple and cost-effective to create.
- Use a Spray. If you have a smaller pest problem, a simple spray bottle of one tablespoon of vinegar and a small amount of dish soap may be enough to treat your issue.
- Bleach Your Drains. If you notice gnats around your kitchen sink or bathtub, pour a cup of diluted bleach down the drain to kill the gnats. Be sure to pour the cup of bleach down each drain or garbage disposal very slowly until there are no more gnats in your line of sight.
- Make a Candle Trap. Place a candle in a candlestick and fill the holder partially with water. Light the candle and turn off the lights. The gnats will flock to the flame and be burned or will fall into the water and drown.
- Hire a Professional Pest Control Company for Gnat Extermination. If you have a lingering gnat infestation, a professional pest control company can help address it.
