I know it killed everything(bug) I used it on. spiders, flies, bed bugs, flees, ticks, centipedes. so I would have to say yes it will work. it is harmless to pets and people. you can actually sprinkle in pet food.

I am sorry I don't know what phorid flies are,, however this dust is designed to lay down on a flat dry surface for creepy crawlys that walk into it and it dries them out to dust..So if these phorid flies fly,, I don't know how it would

OMG NO. This attracts every fly for miles AND starts to stink. That being said... it attracts every fly for miles and they drown in the water so you have the slightly stinky fly bait topped with dead flies, which attracts more flies to drown in the water and so on.

I'm not sure. It's a very inexpensive drain cleaner though. It might be worth a shot, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt anything.

Not sure about that. I did have a plumber tell me he put a few of these containers in a septic tank and it cleared out the system (pretty impressive). Drain Flies? I would "Google" that (how to get rid of drain flies). Hope this helps.

While I have no personal experience with drain flies per se, I can suggest that you pour the appropriately mixed BioClean *into the overflow/vent hole near the top of the sink*. In my experience, that is very important because a lot of gunk builds up where the overflow junctions with the vertical drain pipe, and that would certainly be a source of food and housing for your drain flies and their larvae. Pouring BioClean directly into the vertical drain pipe will almost completely miss the little foyer where the drain and overflow meet. Eliminating that gunk there may get rid of your flies; pouring it straight into the vertical drain almost certainly won't.

Yes it says in the product listing pdf file that it kills: Leafhoppers, Leafminers, Whiteflies, Thrips, Mealybugs, Loopers, Caterpillars, Aphids,Fruit flies, Beet Army worms, Mexican Bean Beetles, this was directly copy and pasted off of the back of their label, hope this helps everyone

We used this to successfully get rid on the watermeal in our pond, which is very very hard to kill. This killed all the vegetation in our pond. I would not use this if you are concerned about your water lilies.

This killed every insect in my house. I'm pretty sure it would kill fruit flies.

Yes, however, this will also kill any beneficial insects (that have exoskeletons) that come in contact with it.

I used it on these gnats that have occupied one of our floor plants and although it killed the all of the flies, the plant started to dwindle so you may want to consider an alternative means. Perhaps dropping a spider there but thats kind of cruel.

No, this will only kill grubs in the soil. You might look into Diatomaceous Earth to kill those types of bugs organically. Good luck!

I don't think it will. As I understand it , the spores go into the ground and will kill the larve of Japanese Beetles, some grub worms and other insects that live in the ground. The spores do multiply year after year but will not affect the beetles that fly in from neighbors until they go into the ground I am hoping it will kill enough grubs to starve the moles/voles out

Will this help my fly infestation (have no idea where they are coming from)? I kill 10-15 flies a day!

My dogs are in the house so I have no idea on the flies. It did seem to burn both my dogs skin upon application and irritated them for quite a while.

It should. It kills anything in the grass family. The product info is on their website. It has to be applied when grass is actively growing.

I would venture to say that it would, but really do not know. Spiders are on the list of things it kills. It , put a large dent in the outside wood roach population around the deck so I'm guessing it will kill brown recluses too. Joe

As long as the fly makes contact with two of the wires it'll fry. I haven't used it on fruit flies but I have on mosquitoes. Zaps them just fine.
