Are too many flies roaming around your house, kitchen, or yard? Well, we’ve all been there and it’s quite stressful. But, not until I discovered this video tutorial by Ray Mack’s Kitchen and Grill on YouTube! There are a lot of tutorials online on how to make fly traps or baits but this one right here is the best in my opinion as this was the most effective I’ve tried so far. Throwing out the trapped flies is a challenging task as it was definitely gross but it’s worth it because my yard haven never been that clean and fly-free for some time now. If you want to try this at your home too, then proceed to read down below for the full and easy instructions, and watch the video tutorial as well.

Materials:

  • Old pickle jar or an empty bottle
  • Brown sugar
  • 1 piece of hot dog, sliced into 1/8-¼ inch thick
  • Water

Directions:

Step 1

Find an empty bottle or jar that you are not planning to use anymore, then drill small holes in the jar cap if you’re using a jar, but if you’re using a bottle, then drill holes around the shoulder, make sure that those holes are enough for a fly to get in but difficult to get out.

Step 2

Slice the hot dogs into 1/8-¼ inch pieces, then fill the bottle or jar with water until half full, and add the brown sugar followed by the sliced hot dogs. Close the lid of the jar or bottle, then place the fly trap near the trash can outside or in a fly-infested area.
