What about fruit flies? Can you recommend something for fruit flies also?
Vector Bio-5 Multi-Purpose Drain Cleaner is used for drain sanitation and to remove organic matters, offensive odors and will help deter breeding sites to prevent reinfestation of pests. This is an important step in eliminating Drain Flies as the organic matter build up is their breeding ground. Treatments should be done every night for 7 consecutive nights.
It can take several weeks to get rid of drain flies and the length of the treatment will depend on the level of debris built up in the drain, the number of drains infested and the level of infestation before the treatment is started.
