Well, it finally happened. I bottled a 5 Gal. batch yesterday and when I finished, I took off the top of the bottling bucket ( had it on loose ) and saw a dead fruit fly in the last bit of leftover beer.
I did some research today on the "Little Bastards" and found something interesting. They can't land in a cross wind. ( makes sense cause they have tiny wings ).
So next time I bottle or rack, I'm going to have a fan going.
Thought I'd pass on the info in case anyone else has the dreaded fruit flies flying about.
