The Secret Bug Trap: A Natural Solution to Kitchen Insects

Mixing half a cup of vinegar, half a cup of olive oil and half a cup of shampoo creates a bug trap… Expert reveals the secret to getting rid of kitchen bugs

As temperatures rise, insects become more polarized. In particular, the kitchen, where various foods and their residues are stored, is a place where insects often appear. One expert said that these bacteria can be eliminated with just three ingredients.

The British media Daily Mail revealed the secret to getting rid of flies, mosquitoes and insects in just a few minutes through a video by Barbara O’Neill, an Australian gardener. Since many people say that it is indeed effective, it would be a good idea to refer to it.

O’Neill mixed some ingredients together to create a trap to catch pesky insects. The ingredients for this “bug trap” are half a cup of vinegar, half a cup of olive oil, and half a cup of shampoo. Just mix everything together and put it in a bowl. Placing this insect trap bowl in your kitchen will attract insects. Insects should be left in the mixture until they drown and die.

Various ways to eliminate fruit flies, a nuisance in the kitchen…

Among the insects that crawl in kitchen food, fruit flies are by far the most annoying. Fruit flies fly through pathways such as screens, drains and drains. To avoid these intrusions it is necessary to first check whether the mosquito net is damaged or has empty spaces. You can remove eggs and larvae attached to the inside wall by pouring warm water down the drain or sewer once every 1-2 weeks.

You can also use vinegar or wine to kill fruit flies in the kitchen. Fruit flies love fermented foods, such as red wine or apple cider vinegar, so they smell and attack them. Is simple. Add the apple cider vinegar to a cup or bottle and cover the opening with plastic wrap. Secure the film with a rubber band and make a small hole. This is a passage through which fruit flies can smell the vinegar and enter. If a fruit fly gets in, it won’t be able to escape and will die in the vinegar. If there is any red wine left, open the cork of the wine bottle. Fruit flies can easily enter the bottle, but it is difficult to get out.

Can artificial sweeteners be used as insecticides against fruit flies?

Previously, a study was published showing that artificial sweeteners used as sugar substitutes act as deadly toxins to fruit flies. For this reason it is expected that fruit flies can be eliminated by using sweeteners. According to a study from Drexel University in the United States published in the US Public Library of Science journal PLOS ONE, fruit flies that consumed the artificial sweetener Truvia had a much shorter lifespan than fruit flies that did not eat the artificial sweetener.

The researchers sprayed erythritol, the main ingredient in Truvia, on seven types of fruits that fruit flies like and lured them into eating them. The average lifespan of fruit flies that ate them was found to be 5.8 days. It was much shorter than the lifespan of fruit flies that didn’t eat artificial sweeteners, which ranged from 38.6 to 50.6 days.
