Photo Album: Drain Fly Infestation Caused by Leaky Sewer Line in Highland Park, NJ
A leaky sewer pipe caused a massive drain fly infestation in this restaurant in Highland Park, NJ.
Drain Flies All Over
The sewer pipe bursted in the crawl space and wasn't repaired for quite some time. This lead to a massive drain fly infestation!
They Love Bacteria
Drain flies enjoy stagnant water that collects even small amounts of bacteria and sewage. They can lay eggs in the film that forms on the inside of pipes and drains when water pools and collects sewage.
Fogged Out the Drain Flies
We grabbed our micro-injector and then fogged the area with a knockdown application. This will neutralize the drain flies almost immediately.
The Fly Bait
Lastly, we applied a fly bait product around the high infestation areas to eliminate any active drain flies.
