I allways put my flies immidiately after pinning to acetone. Five-six hours is enough and after this bath all the colours will stay clear. It works with all kind of coloured Diptera, Hymenoptera ans even Sesiidae. There is no pest problem either because as far I understad there is nothing left to eat.
