Photo Album: Garbage Cans & Dirty Drains Attract Fruit Flies in Jackson, NJ

While servicing a commercial building in Jackson, NJ, we uncovered multiple issues that were contributing to a large fruit fly infestation.

Debris Under the Sink

During our inspection, we noticed a large number of fruit flies hovering around certain sections throughout the kitchen. We investigated and found debris under the sink...

Full of Gunk

..and several pans & drains that were full of gunk, sugary liquids, & fruit fly larvae!

Dirty Trashcan

There were also several garbage cans that had debris and liquids stuck on the bottom that were also full of fruit flies. We brought these issues to the managers attention and mentioned that these items need to be cleaned on a regular basis to prevent problems with pests. The manager immediately began to sanitize the problem areas.

Our Treatment

Once the manager finished, we applied a liquid application in all the floor drains and then scrubbed them out with our heavy-duty scrubber. Next, we applied a bio-foam solution that removes the organic build-up, odors, and scum in the drains.

Fly Bait

Lastly, we treated the infestation areas with a fly bait to control the adult fruit flies. In a short amount of time, the fruit flies will be exterminated.
