It is often what I need to do before having any hot food... I call the symbol of independence. Because, you know, that always works so well, and I'm not really alone or going insane either, I just have hundreds of small fruitflies to accompany in the depths of the abyss...

Shake a microwave? Like you're physically lifting up your microwave and shaking it like you would with Orange Juice? And are the flies in your microwave? If so, how do they keep getting in? I'm so confused :? .

Do you have to shakeyour microwave oven to get all the fried flies out of there before you bake your next meal?
Salt them, spice them up. Use them as crunchy ....it´s protein :D

...o.o If they really are fruit flies, I recommend fly tape above the microwave. They'll swarm to it. Fruit flies are attracted to sweet and sticky stuff. Rotting fruit, vinegar, honey, juice, wine, etc. You can also get a bottle, fill it a tiny bit with vinegar, and then pour a tiny bit of olive oil inside . Make sure it has a thin neck. The flies will fly down because they smell the vinegar and then get stuck in the oil. They're a huge nuisance in the summer over here, so I'm used to getting rid of them.

Maybe you should get a fruit fly trap.
And clean your microwave.
