🛠️ How to Get Rid of Them Effectively
1. Clean the Pipes Mechanically: Pouring boiling water down the drain helps, but it rarely removes the thick organic slime. Use a stiff pipe brush to physically scrub the inside of the drain.
2. Use Enzyme Cleaners: Instead of harsh chemicals that can damage older plumbing, use an enzyme-based drain cleaner. These formulas eat away the organic sludge where larvae feed and hide.
3. Keep it Dry: Fix any leaky faucets, seal loose grout around the shower or tub, and use a ventilation fan to lower the humidity levels after showering.
