I have a question mommas. I get little fruit flies in the house, I don't open my windows because I'm afraid someone will just come in (you can into my house by walking into the window, its very low)... The air in my house feels congested and dry, what should/can I do to clean the air or make it better?.

Do u have a filtered A/C system? Maybe the filters need to be changed. We had to do that recently.

@caseclosed2015, I don't have one which is probably another reason.

Purchase an air purifier. Target has tons of great ones. Also like @caseclosed2015 said make sure your filter has been changed recently if you have central air. Also buy fruit fly traps. They have some good cheap ones on Amazon.

I don't know anything about the air situation. But I used to get fruit flies all the time and then finally realized they were coming in with the fruit I would buy from Costco or where ever I bout them. So I started washing everything asap and then keeping what I could in the fridge until it got cold enough. Also I googled online home remedies for fruit flies and if you mix together apple cider vinegar with a lil water, so sugar and a few drops of dish liquid in a bowl and leave it where you see them most they will be attracted to the sugar in the vinegar but the soap will kill them. Anyways it worked for me. Good luck @trezelle
