Types Of Flying House Bugs Why Do Dead Flies Attract More Flies?
First, deny them food. Store fruit in the fridge. Take out the trash. Dry your sink. For gnats, stop overwatering your plants. Let the soil dry out between waterings. For drain flies, clean your drains with bleach or boiling water weekly.
Second, trap them. Make a vinegar trap: a bowl of apple cider vinegar, a drop of dish soap, and a piece of plastic wrap with small holes. They fly in, the soap breaks surface tension, and they sink. It’s like a tiny death pool for bugs.
Third, don’t panic. A few flies don’t mean your house is dirty. It means you have something they like. And they are short-lived. Most live only a few days to a few weeks. They’re here for a good time, not a long time.
