How to clean fruit fly poop

Step-by-step guide

Step 1
Spray Universal Cleaner directly onto the affected area.

Step 2
Wipe with a General Cloth, using the Scrubby Corner for stubborn specks.

Step 3
For light fixtures, switch them off, let them cool, then clean as above.

Step 4
Flip to a dry side of the cloth and buff clean.

 

Pro tip

Prevent fruit fly build-up by keeping your kitchen bin clean and covering fruit bowls — fewer flies means less mess.

 

Safety first: Always ensure light fixtures are switched off and cool before cleaning.

 

Other notes

A quick weekly wipe in fruit-heavy areas helps keep spots from building up. Vinegar traps can help reduce fruit fly numbers in peak season.
