Have your mother please read below paragraph. If that does not work; try and get some springtails fast. If you can't get them to eat and they start losing weight; recommend release them near a pond before they starve.

Hi LL's Mom! Wingless fruit flies can't fly and will quickly be eaten by frogs. Even if they escape container; they will not survive for long without food and create a bug issue in your home. I have raised crickets, couple roach species, fruit flies, and worms. Even when there is an escapee (usually crickets); they do not survive in modern household environments well. To deal with escapees you can use a glass mason jar or similar on it's side or slanted against wall with a bit of molasses inside. It becomes a natural "tar pit" that will attract and capture any loose bugs in house .
