    Yeah fruit flies breed in the drain and are attracted to moisture/rotting stuff. I’ve noticed a few lately.

    I used to deal with it by shaking dry baking soda into the drains, leaving it overnight to eat away at any smells/goop/small blockages, then carefully pouring a kettle of boiling water down after it.

    Also you can make a homemade trap. Put some diluted apple cider vinegar and a drop of dish soap in an empty plastic water bottle. They fly in attracted by the fermented apple smell of the apple cider vinegar and can’t quite find their way out of the bottleneck, then when they fall down into the liquid the lack of surface tension from dish soap causes them to drown.
