Leave a bit of bacon grease out in a bowl where you have an insect problem. They will be attracted to scent, go in, and get trapped in the thickness. I found this out by accident when I left bacon grease out on the counter. We had a flying insect problem... And now we don't! ;)
I'm sure you can use other animal fats. I'm really happy with this method. Discard the bug infested oil in the bin, not down the drain. :)

It seems to be a good deterrant for bigger insects, but it turned out to be the breeding ground for all the fruit flies in my house when I couldn't figure out what else was causing it! (plugged the drains, kept all open food in the fridge, covered my trash can...)
