Fruit flies are attracted to the vinegar and once they dive in the soap traps them. Even better if you can keep the solution warming overnight to catch them. I put a glass measuring cup on top of my oven with it set to a very, very low temperature. I had a major fruit fly infestation from the birds a couple of years ago and was able to totally decimate the fruit fly population in one night.
