Frequently Asked Questions About Fly & Drain Fly Control

Q: Why do I have tiny flies in my kitchen or bathroom, and where are they coming from?
A: If you are seeing small, slow-flying gnats near sinks, tubs, or floor drains, you are likely dealing with drain flies or phorid flies. These persistent pests do not just fly in from outdoors; they breed rapidly inside the gelatinous organic slime that accumulates along the walls of poorly maintained drainage pipes, sewage lines, and grease traps. House flies and blow flies, by contrast, are typically drawn inside by exposed food, overflowing indoor trash containers, or nearby outdoor waste bins.

Q: Can I get rid of drain flies by pouring boiling water or bleach down the sink?
A: Pouring boiling water or household bleach down your drains is a common DIY myth that provides, at best, a very temporary reduction in adult flies. Bleach does not effectively dissolve the thick, rubbery organic bio-film protecting the larvae and eggs hidden deep inside the plumbing. Our certified technicians utilize professional-grade, eco-friendly microbial bio-gels and insecticide foams. These specialized formulas cling to the entire circumference of the pipes to safely break down the organic breeding matrix and eliminate the infestation at its source.
