Default drain fly problem

I'd try one of those bacterial drain cleaners that you can get in any
hardware store. The bacteria will eat the blank gunk in the drain which
is the food source for these flies. The real solution is to find their
source. Is water dripping behind a wall? Water condensation coming from
the air conditioner? Get rid of organic matter near the source..

When I have clouds of tiny insects inside (fruitflies, or those little
orange spherical bugs, or whatever), I find the best way to clear them
is with a shop vac, which I immediately empty outside in case any
survived the carnival ride. Plus eliminate their food source, of course.
