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.
