How to make a fly trap from a jar or bottle: 1. Tape or glue paper to make an open cone, then fit the cone inside a plastic or glass jar or bottle. 2. Seal around the opening of the bottle so there is no space between the cone and the bottle. 3. Hang the bottle from string or wire, or attach it to a stick in the ground. 4. Put some sweet bait, like fruit or fish, just under the trap. Flies will land on the food and then fly through the cone and into the bottle. 5. To empty the trap, turn it mouth up, remove the cone, fill with water to make sure the flies are dead, and then empty it into a toilet or compost pile. To reduce flies, hang this trap near toilets and places where food is prepared.
