They're typically seen buzzing around food, sinks and bins, especially in warmer weather. The reason for this is that they're attracted to moist, fermenting fruits and vegetables and their appearance is almost always a result of leaving food to rot in the bin for too long.
It then takes about one to two weeks to complete the entire metamorphosis. But if your home feels like it's being infested by fruit flies, don't despair - there's plenty of things you can do.
