I was just going to suggest something like this...

I have a fruit fly problem... I put a piece of fruit in a small dish and covered the dish with some plastic wrap. Poked some holes in the wrap with a toothpick and viola... fruit fly trap.

The flys crawl in the holes but can't fly out. No more fruit flies.
