Getting Rid of Little Black Flying Bugs in Bathroom?

Getting Rid of Little Black Flying Bugs in Bathroom - hand holding a small black bugI have these tiny little black bugs flying all around my bathroom and my walk-in closet. I do have fruit out on our kitchen table, but they don't go near it. I set out apple cider vinegar traps and they don't go near them either. There is no food in my closet or bathroom. I've killed so many and they won't go away. I got a fly zapper light and I hear it kill like one every two hours. I don't know where they are coming from, but they won't leave. Please help!

Bugs look for moisture, warmth and food. Make sure you have no leaks. Pour some bleach down drains in the bathroom. They may be coming from there. Dont leave the fruit out for now.

They could be grain or drugstore beetles.

Have you checked all of your cereals and dry goods? Sometimes they come along for the ride when you shop. I had it happen to me when I lived in the south. They were a pain to get rid of.

You have to vacuum them all up. Throw out any products affected. Clean everything with hot water and get a head of them if they come back.

If they are not in your pantry items, then the other choice is carpet beetles. They feast on clothing and carpet fibers and clothing.

Carpet beeetles have a brown and black pattern on their back and I can't see the backs of yours.

The solution is the same with the heavy vacuum and cleaning, but you also have to go the extra step of cleaning any yard debris from around your house and seal cracks in windows or doors or bricks.

I hope you have an easy solution.

Post back with an update.
