It's that time of year, it happens every year, the infestation of the fruit flies....
I'm slowly winning the battle after making a couple fly traps and cleaning the kitchen really well. I know this time next month they'll be long gone but so far 3 or 4 fruit flies drowned in the airlock on top of my blackberry mead. The airlock is full of sanitizing solution, BTW.
My thinking is, that's what you have an airlock for and to not worry about it.
What do you all say, am I OK or in for vinegar?
