Hello!

I actually deposited a banana in our garden to attract hornets, wasps and moths, but I only attracted hundreds of Drosophilidae ;-). Most of them are red eyed 2 mm flies, but some are bigger (seen on pics 2 and 3). Are they nevertheless all Drosophila sp.? Thanks!

All Drosophila, yes.

Wonderful, thanks! Yesterday also some Muscids and Calliphorids visited the bananas.
