Fruit flies are nature's most annoying house crashers and they have truly taken over my life and everywhere I go in Maine.

They currently reside in my kitchen, my bathroom and my job. So, it seems like this is the time of year that they have reached their grand crescendo to destroy us all.

No doubt when you're taking that trip upta camp in northern Maine, they're probably waiting for you.

What are fruit flies attracted to?

According to Pine State Pest Solutions, they feed on and lay their thousands of eggs on old fruit or ripe, decaying foods.

If fruit flies had a Tinder profile it would read:

"I like long walks on old bananas, indulging in piles of garbage and attacking your very soul. DM me xo"

Here's the kicker, they've decided to take up residence in our homes without even buying us a drink first and it's really making me angry. My home is NOT your buffet.

In the summer and spring these guys are like chillin' but then when fall rolls around they really start to put on a show in our houses.
