My girlfriend has been breeding her fruit flies for about a year or more now. However, a lot of them are starting to fly again (they used to be flightless), and they continue to breed, creating even more fliers.
Her one frog has been unable to eat as much because of this, and seems to be losing weight. All of the flies enjoy clinging to the top of her tank, safe from both of the frogs.
I'm going to be picking up a brand new culture today at Petco so she can start over with them. Is there a real way to prevent them from flying again? Or at least slow the process of it down? I realize it's in the genes, so is it something that everyone just has to deal with?
