[Community_garden] Fruit Flies in Worm Bins

I've been plagued by fruit flies in my worm bins for a couple of years.  Have twice completely cleaned them out and started over.  Finally, this winter, I think I may have found a remedy.  I have a programmable thermostat and I set it to 55 degrees down from 60 degrees at night.  Now, I no longer have fruitflies.  Coincidentally, I also don't have any spiders anymore.  I don't really mind the spiders but I think it has just gotten too cold at night for them.
