Fruit Flies

If your home is infested with Fruit Flies a treatment by Chem-Wise may not
be necessary. The key to eliminating Fruit Flies is to identify the
source and either remove it or clean up the area. The cause could be
over-watered house plants, floral arrangements that are kept in the home too
long, recycling bins, garbage cans, or a water leak. We ask that
customers remove any fruit or floral arrangements that the flies are coming
from. Check the house plants, let the top soil dry out a bit, and then
mix it up really well. Take a look at recycling bins and garbage cans,
the ones in the home as well as those stored outside. Scrub all
garbage cans with a strong detergent, spilled food or soda on the sides of
the cans could be a source. Remember, flies fly so the source could be
in another room from where you are seeing the activity.
