Gnats, not flies
May 20th, 2008 at 7:43am |
The bin is still infested, but I found out, thanks to this blog, that those things are fungus gnats, not fruit flies. One dead giveaway was that they were not interested in fruit (duh!). Luckily, since they are mostly interested in moist dirt, they’ve been hanging out in the bin a lot. I hope to pick up some sticky fly paper or other gnat catching device soon to cut down on their numbers. If that fails, we’ll have to gather the boys and start over.
