murder away; because if you don't, they'll be on top of your next morsel of food as it goes into your mouth (sorry for the Puke but it's true!). bug-killers anonymous, here we come!

I usually protest murder ... but some things have got to go ... pray for the dead fruitflies ... What first say a brocha so they hear a mitzvah ... but do NOT eat the banana (or onion) they have been procreating on ... Puke

For fruit flies, you must find the source, or you'll never get rid of them. Somewhere is a rotten plum or onion, and they're breeding in it. Find it, and they'll be gone in a day. In college, I once tried sprays, bug bombs, everything. Found the bag of onions and they disappeared.

Definitely the way to go. If they seem to be around your sink, maybe it's time for a new sponge? And cleaning the drain (boiling water, fly gel, bleach, whatever) sounds like a good idea too.

Maybe spray them with Rich's whip. Their arteries will harden and they'll eventually die, and it's non-toxic.

Why do you say that? Smile

Well, you know what they say, "Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana"

Count me in clarissa's camp. Find the offending produce, get rid of it, and the wildlife is gone. Don't just drop the banana in your trash bin: put it in a plastic bag and tie it shut first.

Why kill them? Collect them and donate to your nearest genetics lab. Geneticists research on fruit flies because their life cycle is so short, it's possible to collect tons of data on many generations in a short time.
