    Q
    How do I get rid of drain flies in the kitchen?
    I am having a big problem with drain flies in my home kitchen. My problem is that I cannot remove the cross bars in sink drain, so I will not be able to apply the gel to the sides of drain. Before I purchase, I thought I would ask your help. These things are really annoying, and I would like to rid them, prior to the holidays. Thanks!
    A

    Most people cannot remove the cross bars on the drain and that is ok.  The Invade Bio Drain and our other gels have a spout on the top and you can squeeze the bottle and "shoot" the product out the spout onto the sides of the drain.  Also, if you treat along the outside perimeter of the dr…

  • Asked by Imperial from Hernando
    06/14/2015
    Q
    Do you pour water down drain after putting drain gel down drain? Or do you let it sit 8 hours unused and the next morning run water down drain?
    A

    We recommend that you apply 4 oz of Invade Drain Gel in each drain opening when they are not in use. You should refrain from running water down the drain after application so the product has time to be effective in breaking up the organic matter in the drain. We also suggest appling 2-3 squirts of G…

    Q
    Does Draino kill the microbial action of Invade Bio Drain? I had to use it between orders.
    A

    Draino contains some very harsh chemicals and most likely would kill the microbial action of the Invade Bio Drain. We recommend rinsing the drain very thoroughly before reapplying the drain treatment.

    Q
    Does the 1 gallon bottle comes with a pourer like the smaller size bottle?
    A

    Unfortunately, no.  The larger gallon size has a typical wide opening and does not have a spout like the smaller quart size bottle.

  • Asked by Robert from Chicago, Il

    Q
    Drain gel is very thick and doesn't really get into the drain. Should one pour a bit of lukewarm water into the sink to force it down into the drain?
    A

    You can, but Drain Gel  is supposed to be thick so it coats the drain as it goes down.  You should direct the gel just down the lip and sides going into the drain.  You should not coat on top of the drain on the sink so it won't go down the drain.

    Q
    Is InVade Bio Drain safe and effective for the shower drain?
    Specifically to eat through hair clogs that have gone into the shower drain?
    A

    InVade Bio Drain is safe for the drain in the shower. It will break up organic matter in the drain. However, if there is an excessive amount of hair inside the drain, you may need to use a tool (you can purchase locally) that works well for unclogging and removing hair from the drain.

    Q
    Can you put Invade Bio Drain in a toilet tank overflow to clean the toilet jets?
    We have a reoccurring issue with mold and/or mineral deposits under the rim of the toilets coming from the water holes (jets) that we haven't been able to completely clear out with a regular toilet brush and cleaners. Would Bio Drain gel help?
    A

    InVade Bio Drain probably won't be the best product to use in your situation. You can turn the water off to the toilet and flush it so that the bowl and the tank are empty. Thoroughly scrub both, paying special attention to the area under the lip of the bowl and the tank. While the toilet is dr…

    What is the best combine use when using Bio Drain and Gentrol to control drain flies and phorid flies?
    If you put the biodrain in, does it take away the effectivness of the gentrol?

    Gentrol IGR should be mixed with water and can be used inside the downspout and catch basin area of the drain. This application will be completed before you use the Invade Bio Drain. You will repeat applications every 2-4 weeks.  The Invade Bio Drain should be used by itself. You will use this …

  • Asked by Byron from Tinley Park, Il
    04/30/2019
    Q
    Will use of InVade Bio Drain contribute to a "slow" drain?
    Since this product uses microbes in formulation thick enough to coat the insides of drains and to eat through scum, could this action create or contribute to a "slow" drain?
    A

    InVade Bio Drain would not cause a slow drain and the microbes actually help unclog drains of organic matter that can cause a slow drain.  You would leave in the drain over night (when less used) and then rinse in the morning.

    Do drains treated with InVade Bio Drain need to be rinsed with hot water the following day?

    InVade Bio Drain should be applied to drains at night when not use so the gel has time to work it’s way down the drain for several hours. Additional rinsing or rinsing with hot water is not needed. Normal use the next day is fine.  This process should be repeated for 7 consectutive nights for…
