I've had fruitflies from petco come pre-deadified. Where'd you get them?

Could they have dried out? Culture gone bad? Bloodline gone bad? How hot has it been where they're at (possibly left in sun)?

When they hatch but a slice of banan down there and pure some water in to wet up the subrate.. that way you get more flies from it, they living longer and they are more healthy..
