Trapping fruit flies with food baits

Uploaded 1 month ago | Loading

Young fruit flies need protein to develop, so all species of fruit flies are attracted to food baits that are rich in proteins. Yeast waste from breweries is rich in proteins and offers an excellent raw material to turn into a food bait. Food bait is food mixed with water and when the flies pass by, the smell attracts them to eat, and they are trapped by the water and die.
