   • Cut off the top of the bottle. Pretty much any repurposed plastic bottle will do for making a DIY fly trap for indoors or out. Examples include soda, juice, or water bottles.
   • Add bait to the bottle base. Bait is necessary to lure houseflies into the trap. While fly bait can be bought in stores, you can take the DIY route here, as well.
   • Place the top of the bottle upside down into the base. Flip the top of the bottle and place it upside-down into the bottle base. This creates a funnel that will lure flies into the trap and the small bottle top opening will help keep the flies contained in the trap.
   • Fill the bottle base with water and add dish soap. Pour water into the funnel to fill the bottom of the trap with water. Leave a couple of inches of space between the bottom of the funnel and the water line.
