Small Fly Control (Drain Flies & Fruit Flies)

Nothing ruins a clean kitchen, bathroom, or bustling restaurant dining experience faster than a cloud of tiny flies. Whether it’s fruit flies hovering around your produce bowl or drain flies emerging from your sinks and floor drains, these resilient pests multiply quickly.

Because they breed in hidden, organic buildup, DIY sprays only kill the adults you see, leaving the unseen larvae to continue the cycle. Paffy’s Pest Control stops small fly infestations at the source, permanently eliminating their breeding grounds so you can reclaim your space.

Restaurant & Commercial Floor Drain Services

In restaurants and commercial kitchens, floor drains are an essential component of daily sanitation protocols. As a result, they often become ground zero for fruit fly and drain fly infestations due to the constant accumulation of moisture, food particles, and organic matter.

We specialize in commercial floor drain services to keep your restaurant compliant, sanitary, and completely pest-free. Our team treats the floor drain directly to remove the organic buildup where flies lay their eggs and deal with the issue at the source.

What our customers say

“Paffy’s came out to treat our floor drains for fruit flies. Joe did an awesome job explaining everything that needed to be done and walking me through the process. I highly recommend having Paffy’s come out and treat your drains if you have a restaurant with fruit flies- it made a huge difference!”

Our Treatment Process

To get rid of small flies, we focus on sanitation and source eradication rather than simply treating the air. Our comprehensive approach includes:

We first determine exactly what type of fly you’re dealing with. This tells us where to look for their breeding sites, whether it’s a slow-draining shower, a sticky recycling bin, commercial floor drains, or decaying matter beneath your appliances.

We utilize specialized insect growth regulators (IGRs) and bio-enzyme treatments. These products actively break down the organic scum where drain and fruit flies lay their eggs, disrupting their life cycle and preventing reproduction.

Our technicians will leave you with straightforward, actionable sanitation tips to keep your drains clear and your counters fly-free moving forward.

Small Fly Control in MN & WI

In Minnesota and Wisconsin, small fly populations explode during our humid summers and peak during the late-summer harvest season. Fruit flies easily hitch a ride indoors on fresh farmers’ market produce, while muggy weather speeds up the decay of organic matter in outdoor bins and indoor drains.

Even worse, during the freezing Upper Midwest winters, these flies will gladly overwinter inside your home or restaurant if their breeding grounds aren’t treated. Paffy’s understands exactly how local seasons impact indoor pest pressures, delivering solutions that keep your MN or WI home and business fly-free year-round.

We were having some siding repaired when a contractor found a large yellow jacket nest next to the house. With no extra time in the schedule I panicked but Paffy’s saved the day! They were able to squeeze us in same day, and get our contractor back to work. Everyone I interacted with was friendly and knowledgeable. I’ll be using them again no question.

The Fly Problem You Can’t Clean Your Way Out Of

If you manage a restaurant, food service facility, or commercial kitchen in Minnesota or Western Wisconsin, you've probably had this conversation before: flies keep showing up no matter how clean the space looks. You check the trash. You check the prep areas. You check for standing water. Everything looks fine, and the flies keep coming back anyway.

Traps Aren’t a Long-Term Plan. Exclusion Is.

Setting a few traps and calling it rodent control is a little like patching a leaky roof with tape. It might buy you some time, but it doesn't solve the actual problem. If rodents or insects have a way into your building, they'll keep finding it, no matter how many traps you set inside

5 Early Warning Signs of Bed Bugs After Returning from a Trip

Returning from a vacation or business trip should leave you feeling relaxed and refreshed. The last thing you want to bring home as a souvenir is a pest infestation. Bed bugs are notorious hitchhikers that easily slip into luggage, clothing, and personal belongings. Even a stay at a highly rated hotel can put you at risk of encountering these resilient insects.

Why Are There Crickets In My Basement?

Walking down the stairs into your lower level only to have a large insect leap directly at your legs is an unpleasant experience.
