Here's what you'll need:

• A jar;
• Apple cider vinegar;
• Dishwashing detergent;
• A sheet of paper.

Basic steps:

1. Heat a glass of apple cider vinegar in a saucepan (you need enough vinegar to submerge the fly). Then pour it into a glass jar;
2. Add 1 or 2 drops of dish detergent to the vinegar to reduce the surface tension of the liquid. This step is important because it prevents the flies from simply landing on the surface of the vinegar and flying away;
3. Roll a piece of paper into a funnel and insert it into the jar, leaving a small hole for the flies to enter.
