Janissy, I'm using that banana to lure them inside a jar so I could later release them outside of my house, although admittedly the population doesn't seem to be decreasing. So, you think this is counter-productive? It's an implementation of a suggestion I read online.

I've gotten them in my room from cans of flavored tea that have a small amount left or cups of orange juice I leave out too long or if I happen to leave half an orange sitting there or something which I've done, are you sure you don't have anything like that laying around? otherwise if the banana is rotting at all it could be attracting more.

But yeah anything rotting is likely to attract more, it almost seems they come from rotting fruit. But yeah I don't think they are dangerous at all, I think maybe rotting fruit is their food source.

They can contribute sickness if you leave rotten food around. Make sure there is no food left out, dirty garbage, uncovered garbage, sugary drink are closed, and it's clean in your area. Fruit flies while they like fruit, they will eat anything, and hang around a warm and/or dirty place. They can survive off of pure wet nasty molding garbage and multiply at an alarming rate. What works best for me at eliminating them is simply good old fashioned bug spray directly on the lot wherever they may be. One method that can work for you besides bug spray is getting a small bottle of sugary drink.. one of them 16 oz bottles or a 750ml of cheap sugary wine works as well... Drill a whole in the cap, not a big one. Leave about half of the drink inside the bottle, actually a bit less, cover the cap with your thumb and shake it up... So all the sides are sticky. Now give it a day and wait, and when you come back there should be a lot in there, some dead and some alive. Grab the bottle and cover the cap again then shake. That should kill them. They will always come back though if you leave something for them around so this method should be very temporary.
