Fruit flies love fruit, hence their name. They sure can be pesky and not very pleasant flying around in the kitchen or trash can. To keep them away, make sure to throw out any fruits that have ripened too much and probably won't be eaten. After peeling a banana, wrap the peel in a paper towel before throwing in the trash can. Better yet, put the peel inside a plastic grocery bag and place in the freezer until trash day.
The garbage disposal is another fruit fly attraction. Don't forget to run the disposal after putting food scraps down inside. Remember to sanitize the garbage disposal occasionally by pouring a box of baking soda down the disposal.
