No fruit or food out in my house, garbage dumped daily and disposal purged with every use. Yet they persist, swarming thicker than I've seen in a decade. Same thing at ALL local friends' houses and stores, particularly in the produce areas.
Is it a Washington County sort of thing?
I'm keeping the activity down to a dull roar with open cups of apple cider vinegar to attract them and a bit of dish soap to minimize surface tension allowing the little buggers to trap themselves. I got three cups of 50-60+ over the first couple days, and now it's down to a dozen or so per day.
Anyone else experiencing this increased annoyance? What are you using to fight it?
