Re: Anyone suffer with drain flies in their hme?

[ Edited ]

I don’t know what “ drain flies” are... it if you are referring to fruit flies, they don’t need any harsh chemicals. Just vinegar has worked for me. If your friend has a garbage disposal, that needs to be cleans thoroughly also...it was the source of some aggravating fruit flies last year and we thought we would never figure out where they were coming from. Turns out there was a piece of a banana peel stuck under one of the blades in the disposal....now I pour some bleach and very hot water through the disposal once a week....not a bad idea to do the same in bathroom sinks as well.
I hope your friend has her problem solved now.

if your friend has asthma and other health issues, the last thing she needs are chemical bombs released in her home: they leave a residue behind on everything.
