Drain Fly Infestation Services
Drain flies are a common pest found in Washington & Oregon households. Drain flies are also referred to as sink flies, filter flies, and sewer gnats. Common household issues such as leftover food and water stuck in drains can attract swarms of drain flies.
Drain flies have a short lifespan of about 20 days however, they are known to breed extremely fast leaving homeowners with a continuous drain fly infestation if not addressed properly.
What Are Drain Flies?
Commonly mistaken for fruit flies, drain flies are small flies that grow to be about ⅛ of an inch and have dark grey bodies. Drain flies will occupy small, moist spaces such as sink drains in large groups.
Drain flies seek for places where food or other organic material decays such as drains, garbage disposals, toilets, and trash areas if not sealed and cleaned up properly.
Enclosed areas that are moist or hold standing water are a perfect place for drain flies to live, feeding on decaying organic matter after they hatch their eggs.
