“This fly paper is delicious!” How couldn’t it be with ingredients like this?

  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • brown paper

According to Make Stuff, you just mix the ingredients together in a small bowl and then pour it over strips of the brown paper, letting it soak overnight. The next day, you poke holes on the tops of the strips and hang them up with string.
