So I was putting together some jars VIA pf tek, and had a small amount of BRF and verm/water mix left in a large bowl. I come back 20 mins later to find it covered in flies. Since when do fruit flies enjoy verm and BRF?....

Wet verm will attract flies with or without rice flour. They're attracted to the mineral for some reason. I've been doing a lot of brick laying lately, and they're all over the mortar I spill on the ground. Yellow jackets are also attracted to it. RR
