How to tell if you have midges
- Swarms of small flies
- The adult flies are around 6 – 8 mm long
- During their swarming activities, adults may be attracted to lights. Buildings with outside lighting will attract large numbers of these insects. If these lights are around vent openings, air conditioning units or windows, the insects can find ways into the structure. The next day, dead midges can be found on window sills, possibly through the entire building
