The target group of these smaller cases buzzes from May to October around. It is the fruit flies (Drosophilidae), commonly known as fruit, fruit, cider or vinegar flies. These small flies can be happy in crowds everywhere down where trick or treating in play (juice, wine, salad, beer, etc.), a bad habit again that they are fatal in conjunction with the fishing glasses offered here. The glass traps are preferably filled with a bulky red wine or vinegar. The insects follow lure and fly through the lower side, upwards tapered entrance hole into it and do not find out again, go intoxicated the way of all flesh and us not on the nerves.

“Refreshingly is the Mittagsruh, only one comes often not do so,” concludes the Fliegenhumoreske of gladly tummelnden in botany Wilhelm Busch, whose “gnats and Purr” fill three whole volumes – he was not a friend of small air fleets. In and around Thüringen well known, the glasses are blown there by a historical model. (There may be small variations in measurements.)
