Fruit Flies

[ladycolorado]

Pat the wine makes sense. It smells fruity and rotten fruit ferments some so ideal bait. Then the little buggers get stuck and drunk then drown and die. Awesome!

I keep finding them in my coffee cup - so gross when I go to take a sip. I guess if I had to take my life, drowning in a cup of Starbucks would be the way to go.

Megluth thats an expensive way to die-here in England the wine is cheaper than Starbucks LOL.

Beer will do the same thing or vinegar. Pour some in a glass put plastic wrap over the top and a take a pencil and poke a small hole making a funnel They can get in but not out. you could also do the same with an old seasoning container. I think I would rather not attract them into the house in the first place though. We re-screened our screens with no-see-um size grid. This made the most difference. I don't like to leave fruit out at all although I think my husband thinks I'm nuts Also clean garbage disposer, drains, overflow drains and under the rim of toilet often. phorid flies love those areas.

I Am Wondering If Anyone Here May Have Had This Same Experience: Early On In The Illness Of Mine I Had A Scab To Come Off And It Had A Hole In It But Was A Deep Scab The Very Odd Thing That I Am Wondering If Any Of You Have Experienced Is It Had A Black Thing Like A Thin Wire That Was Petruding In And Out Of The Hole I Watched It For About Ten Minutes And It Went Up And Down For That Long Then Stopped When It Stopped It Was Not Visible Maybe Like It Had Died Have Any Of You Experience This?

Many Thanks Freebird

hi freebird,
I have found numerous black wiry ones that i removed from my skin and scalp.is your hair dark? i believe they encass our scalp and use our hair to anchor themselves.just my theory.but i have cleared my face completely of the deep lines and my hair is finally filling in it was so thin.also all of the black spots on my chest that the dr told me were sunspots(not) are gone.but it does seem like some of the black ones are alive.

Hi Robin,
What sort of things did you do to rid yourself of the deep lines on your face? I too think there is some kind of fly component to this. My God, the sheer thought of it. Different things that I've seen and had happen to me have made me think this. I don't want to believe it. Moles that have been on my body since a child (upper body) have slowly gone away after rubbing down with alcohol wipes. Strange. Lately I've had things flying around me too. I feel the doctors know what this is, don't know how to cure it (at least I hope thats the case and not because insur. won't pay) and feel it would be crule to tell us. I feel we are being judged some how,like with the AIDS thing. At first they said let them die because it was thought of as only a Gay disease. I've never been a drinker a drugie or a slut. How did I get this. Thats the million dollar guestion,and you know what if I had been , I still deserve help. Its all GOD,GOD,GOD these days, but do they listen to what is preached! C

hi weredigo,
where did you go? its good to see ya around.for me i always knew it was very alive and the majority of it was on my scalp and face i could feel the hair being wrapped around my eyeball,my ear would move on its own,and my eye would suck itself in.i also know and watched the changes that had occured in my skin especially these last couple of years.i wrote about how i removed this crap to where i feel almost like a normal humanbeing finnally i no longer worry about going out in the daylight in fear of people noticing how scary looking i was.look under my posts if you want to see how i am ridding myself of this.i've said it before and i'll say it again if you or anyone needs help i'm here to help! as far as what you are saying i can definitely relate i've had very similiar thoughts.and thise little flys drive me crazy.its getting cold here in mass and i still am killing flys and those little midges i am so sick of this crap!
xo Robin

I've noticed the small, black fruit flies around me and my environment since I've had obvious symptoms - it was commented that we didn't have any fruit in the house, also, upon seeing quite a few of them this summer. I saw them in the late spring and still seeing them in the fall now. I'm pretty sure there is some correlation.

There's a fellow neighbor nearby me that has Morgellons real bad, he's a Desert Storm veteran - and the VA is saying that he is 'delusional', what a shame! - I've heard that he says that his is so bad on and in his hands that he's actually seen 'flies or bugs' come out of his hands. ?? I haven't talked to him in person because he has chosen to be a 'hermit type', but, I wouldn't be surprised if he says that he's 'hatching' a small fruit fly like 'bug'.

Hi Robin - yes, I'm interested, where did you post it? TY for offering to help others, that is a wonderful thing for you to 'give'. My face is ruined right now.

Or re-post it?
