OK remedy #2. I have used this and I know it works.

Put in an inch of balsamic vinegar in a bowl. I used balsamic because my flies are gourmet.

Put a piece of plastic wrap securely over the bowl. Punch fruit fly-sized holes in the wrap with a toothpick or fork. Set out where the flies are.

They are motivated enough to get in, not talented enough to get out, and eventually drown.

OK, I'll try this. I do have some really nice balsamic-- aged in chestnut barrels and all that...
