Fruit Fly Summer
It's the middle of summer with temperatures rising up to 100F, and it seems that no matter how experienced the composter, at some point bugs will make their way into the house. In the kitchen and the basement next to the worm composting system, I have fruit fly traps set up that do the trick...for 95% of fruit flies. However, there's those stubborn few that seem to knowingly avoid going in the jar and will reproduce at light speed just to annoy me. How do I take care of this? In the kitchen, I simply take out my food scraps more often. This takes away all the fun from the bugs. I also scrubbed the floor and walls, which believe it or not helped immediately! Clearly I don't do it…
