This video was most helpful. We have this very exact same problem in the duplex home we rent. We thought they were fruit flies but the smell under this slab home is horrible. Recently we have noticed we are all getting sick on both sides of the house and these flies are every where in the house. And now mold is forming too. Thank you do much for this video. We now know what is going on.
I have this same problem but thank god I rent...One thing I will check for next time will be to look for these aweful flies...You can't get rid of them without spend a ton..
i have a similar problem with drainflies and have only recently discovered that its because there is a crack in the waste water pipe that takes water from my flat and those above me directly into the sewer and thats how they are getting in (not to mention the reason my hall floor kept getting soaked for no reason) apparently though it isnt enough of a health hazzard for me to get out of my flats contract early (might take it to court tbh!).
How long have you been in pest control?Your a idiot! It is most common when you have a ongoing drain fy problem that you have a sewer leak! And I would like to know what Chemical product is labeled to be applied into sewer drains. The label is LAW!! I think you need to be reported to your local controlling board. Next time get some experts involved.
what would you have done, genius? Talked down the drains asking them to go away? He's not gonna use something not fit for the job. He found the source, that's what she wanted.
You would be amazed how much money people are willing to spend for quality of life. Moth flies are one of the most annoying pests to some people. I've dealt with moth fly infestations in apartments to the point I needed a respirator because I was almost breathing them in there were so many and they were landing on my face. I go down to the crawlspace and there see millions. Millions on top of millions.
I had these types of flies but could not figure out what they were or how they kept getting in my home. What an awesome informational video. Now I know what to check out.
Great video, Marko. Thankfully, I have not run across such a thing (yet?)! Now I'll know what to look for. Love the Christmas lights. Did you guys have a festive pary down there? Watch out for mistletoe....
these flys are everywhere in my schools bathroom, ..F..ing gross

Geez, that was crazy. The crappy thing is that the previous owner knew about the problem.
