We often see this kind of moth near the sewers and on the walls of toilets.
Little Fei'e on the wall
I believe many people don't know what this is, let alone understand it. It always suddenly appears on the walls and glass of your toilet without warning, as well as all kinds of wet places.
People find that it doesn't suck human blood like mosquitoes, it doesn't buzz around and annoying people like flies, and it won't bite people. It lay silently on the wall of the bathroom. So that people ignore its existence and don't know the meaning of its appearance.
This is a real pest
In fact, its scientific name is moth midges, commonly known as moth flies . It is a tiny hairy or diptera insect, including the blood-sucking sandfly and indoor common moth gnat and other important sanitary pests. The larvae mostly live in the habitats of aquatic organisms (often in places with low oxygen content), including bathtubs, handwashing trays, etc., and are common nuisance pests in bathrooms.
First, let me talk about why moth midges appear. Moth midges must require a humid environment. The source may be the accumulation of water in some places such as small waterways, and then the moth midges are given the opportunity to lay eggs before they continue to appear. Because the adult life force has a short life cycle, this type of problem must be a place where larvae can breed. The larvae of moth midges are more disgusting and strong, and they are difficult to extinct except for dryness. The moth midges are covered with fine hairs, which are easy to carry germs and may contaminate food and spread diseases.
Moth midges on the toilet seat
The most fundamental way to prevent moth midges is to rectify the environment; the main moth midges are the breeding of in various stagnant waters,As long as the water in the container is dumped, the floor or sink is removed, and the outdoor water channel is kept unblocked, the number of moth gnats can be controlled. So don't be afraid of this kind of insects in your home. Check if there is any stagnant water in your home. Just treat the stagnant water and keep it dry, and the moth midges will naturally disappear.
