Buy some fly strips.

Also, put some water in a ziploc bag, fill about 1/2 full. Tie a knot in the bag, and hang them where those things are bad. It works for flies, I bet it'll work for whatever it is you have. This doesn't kill them, it scares them away.

Have you considered getting rid of the overripe fruit? Works for me :teeth:

Found this on the internet last year. It works very well.

To get rid of fruit flies, fill a small bowl with red wine vinegar and a few drops of dish soap. I set it on my windowsill near the fruit, and the fruit flies are attracted to it and drown. I have had no more problems with fruit flies since I discovered this
