How can I get rid of dust-like pests (they move) all over my fridge?

Question

Here's my situation: I un-knowingly had some old bread on top of my fridge towards the back (where it is not viewable), which created these pests that I didn't even know were there. I never noticed them until last night...it was like they were not there one minute, and then they were! At first I thought it was dirt or dust on the fridge handles and doors...but then I noticed them moving! I began cleaning the fridge like crazy...but they kept re-appearing! Do they have a name and/or a way to get rid of them? Are they harmful?! PLEASE HELP!

Answer 1

Dust like pests? Never heard of it. But, generally, Raid kills all.

Answer 2

First thing you should do is to pull your fridge out, if it is in a cubby hole or built in. This will allow you to see if some bread may have fallen behind the fridge or even if the "pests" are back there. Sweep and mop the floor under the fridge with Clorox or Ammonia. Then I would start scrubbing walls. Next I would start on the top of the fridge and clean my way down using a diluted Clorox and water solution (on the bottle). Make sure to get in the sealer between the doors and the fridge. This should take care of them. Good luck!

Answer 3

I had a similar problem. Throw out all the food in your fridge or check everything as they are laying eggs somewhere. Also check your fridge is set at the right temperature.

Answer 4

Try disinfecting with bleach and water. Wipe you refrigerator down real good with the bleach and water. If the pests are still there, I would get insect spray and/or call an exterminator.

Answer 5

My best guess would to use rubbing acohol. Rub it all over your fridge. Then wipe it all off after about an hour. It really works!
