How to Get Rid of Fruit Flies

I was going to mention this a few weeks ago when after purchasing various fruit, after a few days much of it was getting infested with these little buggers... :) which were coming incredibly annoying to say the least with the recent hot weather in the summer months.

It was as if they were already with in the fruit...and hatched within a few days.

IF I had grapes..they would often appear with certain types within a very short time..

some things I am not sure if normally I would put in a fridge to hide them from the flies, but maybe that is the only alternative...
