In response to Re: Floor Drain
: I notice that I have an odour from the floor drain, and recently have noticed that there are some small files (similar to fruit flies) : in growing numbers. Do I need to have the floor drain flushed? The house is 45 years old, and I am not sure if this has been done. first make sure that the trap has water in it. if not this is to to the drain not seeing any water for a while and it will evaporate,thus letting flies down the venting pipes and into the house. just pour a cup or two of water in it every month or so to make sure it stays full
