This is the time of year for fruit flies. Our driveway is lined by a bunch of apple trees, I assume since they are fruit flies they are attracted to those (maybe I'm wrong?) But this time of year, when it rains or is really humid, if you leave the car window open in the drive you will end up with 100's of them in the vehicle.

I've now killed like 20 of 'em in the past 2 days. I'm not happy.

Around here, I've found gnats to be black and fruit flies to be light brown. Seems like gnats are smaller, too. Fruit flies seem to fly with a little more purpose, whereas gnats seem to fly aimlessly - especially loitering annoyingly in front of my face.

Just say, 'Here, gnat. Here, gnat'. If it comes when you call, it's a gnat. If it flies away with a disgusted look in its eyes, it's a fruit fly.
