Bug Tip Tuesday!

That black, rubbery drain accessory which prevents water and food particles from splashing up when the disposal is on is a perfect home for fruit flies. This is an often-neglected area, so clean it regularly.
If you find you have fruit flies, add about an inch of apple cider vinegar to the bottom of a glass jar, heat it in the microwave for 45 seconds and then cover with clear wrap. Poke a few holes in the wrap with a fork and place it near the problem area to capture fruit flies. You can even add a few chunks of overripe banana to the cider for an irresistible one-way trip.
