Ingredients

Instructions

  • Grab a small, shallow bowl and pour in a few tablespoons of ACV. Then add put a couple pumps of dish soap. Make sure you at least cover the entire bottom of the bowl, so the bigger the bowl the more ACV you’ll need.
  • Place some plastic wrap tightly over the bowl and poke holes in it with a toothpick or a skewer.
  • Put the bowl in the area of the hotspot where you are seeing the most bugs and let it sit overnight. The smell will draw them in and they can’t get out.
