Preventative Measures to Keep Your Home Fruit Fly-Free

Fruit flies can quickly become a nuisance in your home, especially in the kitchen. However, there are steps you can take to prevent fruit flies from invading your living space:

  • Store fruits and vegetables properly: Keep your fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator or in sealed containers to prevent them from attracting fruit flies.
  • Keep your kitchen clean: Wipe down countertops, clean up spills, and regularly empty your trash to eliminate potential food sources for fruit flies.
  • Dispose of overripe fruits: If you have any overripe fruits, make sure to dispose of them promptly to avoid attracting fruit flies.
  • Use vinegar traps: Place a small container filled with vinegar and a few drops of dish soap on your kitchen counter. The sweet scent of the vinegar will attract fruit flies, and the dish soap will trap them.
  • Seal cracks and gaps: Inspect your windows, doors, and screens for any gaps or cracks that fruit flies can use to enter your home. Seal them to prevent infestations.

By following these preventive measures, you can keep your home fruit fly-free and ensure a clean and pest-free environment for you and your family.

What to Do About Fruit Flies in Your Columbia Home

“They came out of nowhere!” is the most common refrain we hear from our customers when dealing with fruit flies. These insects can be a problem year-round, but are especially common during late summer/fall because they are attracted to ripened or fermenting fruits and vegetables in the kitchen. As they continue to gobble up fermenting fruit, they will lay hundreds of eggs that hatch into larvae in mere hours (if you ever went out of town and left a bowl of ripe fruit on the counter, then you know this all too well.) They can also breed in drains, garbage disposals, empty bottles and cans, trash containers, mops, and cleaning rags. So essentially, all that is needed for a fruit fly infestation to develop is a moist film or fermenting material.

“But all my doors and windows are closed,” you say! “How in the world could they possibly get in?” Fruit flies are so tiny that they can enter through even the tiniest of crevices around your home, and can even fly right through your window’s insect screen. And you can also bring fruit flies home from the store with your groceries, if your fruit has already started to rot there. Once a fruit fly invasion starts, it is paramount the source is located. When discovered, remove the item from the home and place it in the outside garbage can. Discarding it in the interior trash can will only exacerbate the problem. Fruit flies are primarily nuisance pests, however, they also have the potential to contaminate food with bacteria and other disease-producing organisms, so never hesitate to call Modern Exterminating ASAP for fruit fly control.
