How to Get Rid of Small Flies in Your Houseを効率よく進めるためのコツや注意点をピックアップして解説します。

Before you buy any sprays or fancy traps, you need to play detective. Those flies didn’t just appear from thin air; they came from something that’s going bad.

Walk around your kitchen and sniff. Is there a forgotten potato at the back of the pantry? Maybe a damp sponge you rinsed three days ago? These are five-star hotels for fruit flies and their cousin, the drain fly.

Once you find the culprit—a soft tomato, a mug with leftover wine, or a trash can that needs changing—throw it away immediately. That’s step one done.

The Sneaky Sink Situation

Now, check your kitchen sink. Seriously, do it. Even if you washed your dishes, food gunk clings to the drain pipe. That slimy film is a perfect nursery for tiny flies.

Pour a pot of boiling water down the drain, followed by a half-cup of baking soda and a half-cup of white vinegar. Let it fizz like a science fair volcano for ten minutes, then flush with more hot water. This cleans their nursery right out.

If you have garbage disposal, grind up some lemon peels and ice cubes. It smells amazing and scrubs the blades clean.
