maggots


Question
i have maggots in my bin they was all over the outside of the bin i got rid of them on the out side but there in every black bag inside the bin wat would of caused this i have never had them b 4

Answer
Most likely the young of the housefly. The adult flies were attracted to something (in our household usually fish or shrimp) in the container and laid eggs. These have hatched into maggots. After the garbage is picked up, I wash the bin and spray it with a household insecticide.
