Fruit Fly Remedies

Fruit fly populations reach their apex in late summer and early fall, during which time they swarm plantations for feed and lay their eggs on ripened and rotting fruits and vegetables. Females also lay their eggs in garbage bins and compost heaps.

Pyrethrin spray may be utilized to kill adult fruit flies. Fruit fly traps utilize pheromones to attract adult flies. Although there are a number of pesticides and traps to assist in controlling adult fruit fly populations, eliminating the source of the infestation is necessary for long-term results. 

All possible breeding and food sources must be located in order to successfully exterminate a fruit fly infestation. At times, it is difficult for homeowners to locate every possible source and fruit fly populations may return. Pest control professionals are trained to address persistent populations.
