Things have been a bit hectic for me as of late, and I haven’t been as diligent in my attention to household cleaning as I should. Well, after finding a writhing, living garbage bag in my garage, I made a solemn vow to change. If I hadn’t left a rancid trash bag in ninety-degree heat for a week, I wouldn’t have had to get rid of maggots. Flies are drawn to the odor of decay and neglect, and they found just that at my place. Luckily, my maggot infestation was small and relatively easy to cope with. In my latest article, you can learn how to get rid of maggots with or without the use of chemicals, but you’ll find that dealing with them is mostly about prevention.
