Drain Flies

Drain flies are fairly small measuring from 1.5mm to 5mm with light gray or tan bodies. They have a fuzzy appearance because of the long hairs that cover their body and wings and are sometimes referred to as “Moth Flies”.

You will find drain flies in kitchens, bathrooms and possibly basement walls because they feed on organic matter and sewage. They do not bite and are not known to transmit any diseases. They are just a nuisance.

Drain flies reproduce by laying eggs in decomposing materials. Drains are ideal because of the moist nutrient dense material that builds up inside the pipes. It is possible for a generation of flies to last two to three weeks. If you have clogged drains or sinks that are slow to drain, changes are you will see adult drain flies appear before too long.

Removing the clog will help but your Hart’s Exterminator will have a special enzyme that will breakdown the film in the walls of the drain where remaining larvae will be.

Testimonials
  • “Thing is, my friend is P-S-Y-C-H-O-T-I-C about cockroaches. I mean, she went so bloody hysterical while he was adding the last slice of salami to his sandwich that I thought the neighbors were going to call the cops.

    Jesseca S. – Santa Monica, CA
  • “A big thank you to Mark for exterminating the ants who felt that our home was their home. We used to have an ant here and there but after having to redo the flooring in the kitchen due to a flood, we started seeing more and more of them.

    S.M. N. – Manhattan, NY
  • “I accepted some moving boxes from a friend and accidentally brought in a roach infestation. Apparently roaches live off of the glue in cardboard boxes so beware of those bearing moving supplies.

    Kimmie T. – Tustin, CA
  • “We live in Oceanside, a little in the boonies and have Coyotes, and raccoon and possum’s, rabbits, moles and squirrels all over our property bringing in fleas and we fight a losing battle every summer

  • Mark has to be the nicest most honest guy I’ve ever met. He has been doing pest control at my house for years and we just adore him.

    Funny A. – San Clemente, CA
  • “Mark came out at our arranged time and treated the areas locally for a fraction of the price that the other company wanted for tenting.
