so it's that time of year again. we live in one of the wine producing regions of germany, and the harvest and production have begun, as well as the annual infestation of fruit flies. they are EVERYWHERE. it doesn't matter that i don't have piles of discarded grape skins lying around (yes, you oenophiles, they are making mostly white in this area). i have literally TENS of fruit flies in my house, and they are driving me crazy, one by one. and evidently, contrary to popular belief, they live 10 - 19 days.
