    yes actually, you need to pour bleach or bug spray down all of your drains, the flies will be hiding in the drain catch. its where they breed, sleep, stay until they come out to eat. you also need to check under any furniture that may have had a spill under it because if it retained any moisture the flies may have bred under there and you will find the eggs. (disgusting i know, but it happens) but yes, clean your drains out really well and they will slowly disappear. thank you for listening................ your local bug expert, Rocky
    Cant we all just get along?

    In addition to what Rocky said I always put the fly strips up near the garbage and a few other spaces in the kitchen where they tend to fly and it helps cause it catches the strays. I get those little buggers every year and they irritate the heck outta me.
