   I can't get rid of these gnats no matter what I do. I kill like 10 a day now and still there are more. The windows in this place don't seal well and neither does the front door so I assume this problem is finally impacting me and it sucks. On one hand, it sucks to be a renter but then again this could be my place and my fucking money would be needed to replace all of this stuff so I have to be grateful that isn't the case. I read that cinnamon deters these little bastards so I'm thinking about going and buying a shitload of it and leaving it by every window/door like salt to keep out ghosts.

     @c Use apple cider vingar. Flies are attracted to it (it smells like rotting fruit). Place it in a glass bottle with a narrow neck, they'll fly in and drown.

     @c I had success with this, it's basically a one way funnel with vinegar bait. I place it next to where the fruit flies congregate and they're gone in a week. Every time I had an infestation this took care of it.
