WKM, you have made me feel better, by mentioning fruit flies. We do get them, and they used to drive me crazy. Compared to this, the fruit fly is now my "energetic little friend." 
These aren't the cute little moths that you see, from time to time, like mini-butterflies that are "flitting" around a candle, bulb or TV screen. They swarm, then move to crawl around the walls and ceiling, when I turn on the overhead light. This is an infestation. And, given that it has increased over the last few nights, I have to conclude that there's a nest of a gazillion eggs somewhere. I hope that I've put in in the garbage, or blocked the entry into the house.
I feel like Tippy Hedren, in The Birds.
I did get my "comeuppance," though, after using the Raid spray. The law of gravity being what it is, all that spray drifted down to the floor, and I slipped in it. I bruised my elbow, and have a shoulder twinge ... but, at least I didn't break anything.
