Last year we had problems with flies in our trashcan laying maggots.. Ugh! Flies everywhere on my porch and invading the house. A neighbor told me this trick that works like magic. When your trash can is empty (after trash pick up) pour household bleach all around the top part of the inside of the trash can and spray water in it again all around the top and down the insides of the trash can. It killed the maggots instantly. I then tipped the trash can over and emptied out the water and bleach on the driveway. With the summer heat anything you put in the trash can that is moist and wet especially meats flies love to lay their eggs in..Yuck. So I try each week to clean the trash can out cleaned out to avoid these pesky critters.
