## Frequently Asked Questions
### Q: Why won't fruit flies go away?
A: Because you're killing the adults but not the breeding source. A single female lays 500 eggs in her 30-50 day lifespan, and the full life cycle takes just 8-10 days. If you're only swatting adults, you're losing the battle exponentially. We find and eliminate the breeding source — that's the only permanent solution.

### Q: What do fruit flies breed in besides fruit?
A: Almost anything moist and organic: drain sludge, mop heads, recycling bins, garbage disposals, compost buckets, spilled soda under the fridge, wet cardboard, even the film inside pet water bowls. Their larvae can survive in a film of moisture barely visible to the eye.

### Q: How much does fruit fly extermination cost?
A: Residential treatment: $150-$300. Commercial kitchen program: $200-$500/month. Drain treatment and source elimination: included in service. Ongoing monitoring with UV traps: $100-$200/month. Same-day emergency service for commercial kitchens facing inspection: premium rates apply.

### Q: How long does treatment take?
A: Adult flies drop 80% within 24 hours of breeding source elimination. Complete resolution typically takes 3-7 days to cover all life stages. Commercial kitchens can often reopen the next day after treatment with monitoring in place.

### Q: Are the chemicals safe around food?
A: Enzyme-based drain treatments are food-safe and actually clean your drains in the process. The approach focuses on source elimination and sanitation — minimizing chemical use in kitchens and food prep areas.

### Q: How do I prevent fruit flies from coming back?
A: Store ripe fruit in the refrigerator, empty trash daily, clean drains with enzyme treatment monthly, dry mops after use, and rinse recyclables before storing. For commercial kitchens, we establish an ongoing monitoring program with regular drain maintenance.
