The escaping CO2 from the fermentation process is extremely attractive to fruit flies (at least while they're flying, according to the latest research) and will cause them to congregate nearby. | |

The fact that someone else also put that improved idea in an answer doesn't change that. It's not really fair to shut down constructive criticism of your answer in the way. If you're averse to any repetition at all, you can always just reference someone else's answer in yours. | |
