Pests We Treat Photo Album: Treating for Drain Flies in Freehold, NJ
The owner of an adult community in Freehold, NJ was having an issue with drain flies in the kitchen and dining room area.
Flies By the Beverage Station
I began inspecting the dining room and noticed a bunch of flies hovering around the soda dispenser.
Those Are Drain Flies
Upon closer inspection, I identified them as drain flies. After identifying the pest, I continued my inspection.
The Floor Drain
I decided to inspect the floor drains since drain flies primarily harbor in those locations. Sure enough, I found several dirty drains filled with gunk and drain flies.
Infestations Can Be Avoid
Drain fly infestations can be avoided as long as all the floor drains and sinks are cleaned on a regular basis. After bringing this to the attention of the manager-on-duty, I began the treatment process.
First Things First
After removing all the gunk out of every drain in the kitchen and dining room and scrubbing them out, I treated them with a liquid product that removes the bad bacteria, which is the breeding ground for the drain flies.
Bio Foam it Up
Lastly, I treated the floor drains with a bio-foam solution that eliminates all fly-attracting odors.
