how to purge a funfus fly infestation on my straw logs?
    #7605616 - 11/07/07 04:28 AM (16 years, 2 months ago)

okay so i got fungus flies that are crawling on my straw logs...

i got a fly strip and i manually killed about 5 a day and they seemed to have gone away

but recently i've been seeing 10-20 flies a day, and more each day

most threads i read deal with how to get flies out of casings, but since i do not use a casing that doesn't help

as per rogerrabbits advice i went through all my house plants and dealt with any that could be a breeding ground, but that didn't seem to help

anyone got advice?

I have had success with the 24 hr dunkw/ small, small concentration of bleach. Pull out and things should be better, if not go for another 12 hrs or so.

Do a search for 'gnats'. This post gets repeated late summer and early fall every year, so there's lots of tips on how to get rid of them.
