Re: [Killietalk] Fruit fly problems

["wm crash" <wm_crash at hotmail_com>]

Thanks to all that replied on the subject.

The stoppers I use are sometimes plain sponge, sometimes pieces of scrub 
pads, sometimes filter floss. The cultures I have produce lots of flies 
initially, but come 10th to 14th day, there is no fly left; all subsequent 
flies emerging from pupae will stick to the walls and that's where it all 
goes away.

I have tried this about 15 times, but never had real success.

For better ventialtion, I am considering to order the funky containers made 
for fruit flies such as these:

thanks again,
