Just clean the hell up!!!!! This gets rid of them...

:p

Im a student, living in a house with currently 7 other people... :goodjob:
 
It turned out it was the mushrooms i was growing..:mischief:

the compost was perfect for the little buggers- once i got rid of it, the flies soon died off.
 
I had fruit flies over summer - they were real pests. I had to remove everything from the cupboards and bleach the whole room to kill their eggs.

that'll teach ya, grow another type of medicinal plant
 
TBH, i think i'll stick to non-consumable plants
 
Go to a garden shop and look for stuff that kills vine weevil and the like. It's an insecticide designed to be adding to added to soil to kill pests. Works a treat.
 
I have flies and long leg mosquitos constantly flying into my room during the summer somehow. What I do to get rid of them is to take a tissue and catch them with my hand. Sometimes I'll accidentily squish them, which is why I have the tissue to keep their stuff off my hand and wipe off the surface I squished them on.
 
i love how people dont actually bother to read a thread beyond its title...

I am ressurecting this in the vain hope of reversing the process.

YES, now i NEED fruit flys! I plan to get a pigmy charmlion.. and initially they can't eat things much bigger than fruit flys.

Beyond living in a pig sty again.. any suggestions?

hehe, thats brilliant :)
 
:( i miss my pet spider :(

I once had two spiders I was keeping as sort of free roaming pets, Daddy Longlegs I believe

I kept them because I was forced to live in a basement for two months while I was trying to find another place to live and it was either them or bugs that would actually bite me
