Summer is prime fruit fly season — and you’re not imagining it.

Here’s why these annoying pests explode during warm months (and what to do about it).


☀️ 1. Heat Speeds Up Breeding

Fruit flies go from egg to adult in 8–10 days — but warm weather can cut that in half.

More heat = more hatching = more infestation.


🍓 2. More Ripe Fruit, More Food

Fruit bowls, compost bins, and outdoor trash are like buffets for flies in the summer.


💧 3. Increased Moisture

Humidity + food scraps = the perfect breeding ground — especially in kitchen drains.


🛡️ How to Defend Your Kitchen

  • Clean drains weekly
  • Store fruit in the fridge
  • Use NoBuzz Trap™ near the sink or compost bin
