I hear you BNLsMOM!! We have had such a bad time keeping our house clean. And yes, the toilets me and the boy use tend to get a wee bit messy...

We finally hired a cleaner, not that often, just a couple of times a month, but it is such a help. It's not that expensive, although just about anything is a stretch right now...but it's been worth it. The place is still cluttered, but it's no longer so DIRTY.

You can make a fruit fly trap with a glass, some vinegar, paper and tape! It really works to catch the adults, once you have cleaned up where the eggs are hiding. I think there are several pages that show how to do it, findable via Google. (Fruit flies LOVE vinegar, contrary to the popular saying! )
