alternately, hang a inflated brown-paper bag in the area.

Helpful hints: fruit fly trap
Check out Brenda's helpful and easy to follow instructions for creating a humane trap for fruit flies (and a way to get rid of old junk mail envelopes!)
Did you know that fruit flies can breed in your drains?
------------------------------
Alternate trap:
Place a piece of fruit in a dish or short glass and cover with plastic wrap. Pierce the plastric wrap with a skewer, making small holes. The flies can get in but can't get back out.
