Couple of quick questions I couldn't find with the search function:
1) How long is it OK to leave glideraide out (it's in a bottle, not standing in the open)
2) FRUIT FLIES came in with a bag of cherries and I am now battling the evil buggers to get them out of my place. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> I was worried because when I took food from the gliders' cage this morning they were chilling in the fruit :-/ any suggestions to get rid of them fast? (besides my ineffective furiously chasing and killing each one that I see and removing all mooshy fruit from our counters?) <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tantrum.gif" alt="" />

You should toss the gliderade each morning. Also, it's best not to put it in a bottle because it can clog in there. It's actually better to put it in a shallow dish for the night. Here is a link to SunCoast's newsletter with an article on fruit flies and ants that you might enjoy, along with instructions on making a fruit fly trap. Good luck! Those things can be so darned annoying. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Wow, that trap idea is great! I'm going to drink a bunch of pop to get the 2 liters and make one right away! Thanks!
