beastie Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 I have a very stupid question. I have a ton of fruitflies in my kitchen from some fruit that got bad. I want to catch them and feed them to my fish but i sort of don't know how. I read about catching them in wine or some vinegard soap mixture but those would be contaminated and i couldn't feed them to my fish. If I trap them in a jar i have no idea how to collect to feed. Is there some easy way i am not seeing like placing the jar in a freezer or smth before feeding to make them inert but not contaminated? Is it better to kill them before feeding? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllFishNoBrakes Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 I read somewhere else on here that somebody had bought wingless fruit flies, and was unsure of how to feed them. Someone suggested putting them in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to “slow them down”. Then, tap the container on the counter a few times to get them off the sides and in one spot to be able to “pour” your desired amount into the tank. I’ve never done it, I simply remember reading that the other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
