Maggots!!

This morning we discovered a small army of maggots falling out of our food bin, the lid has been broken for a few days which had obviously invited flies to sow their seed.

My husband poured boiling water over them but do I need to do anything else? I've vacuumed and steam cleaned effected areas but I feel so 🤮 at the thought of them coming back.

I'm mortified!

We had this last year behind the sofa. Turns out my darling little angel had hidden an unwrapped baby bel back there and a fly found it.

It's not the end of the world, just give it a good clean, hoover and empty the hoover. Do a follow up clean and hoover daily for a couple of days in case you missed any eggs.
