Making a Gnat Trap - finished trapI think most everyone in our area are experiencing a problem with gnats in the house. They are terrible this year. I have two gnat traps that I use to catch them. They go right to it and it keeps the population of those pesky gnats down. I empty the trap weekly and start all over.

Steps:

  1. Pour vinegar in jar to approximately 1/3 full.
  2. Pull off a sheet of Glad Wrap and place it over the top of the jar.
  3. Making a Gnat Trap - ready to cover with cling wrap
     
  4. While pulling the Glad Wrap tight over the top of the jar, so there are no wrinkles, place a rubber band around top of the jar to hold the Glad Wrap in place.
  5. For neatness, use scissors to trim the excess wrap off.
  6. Press the loose wrap around the jar.
  7. Using a sharp object, punch one small hole in the middle of the Glad Wrap for the gnats to smell the vinegar and enter for a drink. They go in the hole, take a delightful swim in the vinegar and can't get out.
