BRYAN, Texas — A month ago a swarm of moth flies were spotted around the trickling filter at the wastewater treatment facility in Bryan, Texas, according to The Eagle.
These flies, which are also known as filter flies, drain flies or sewage flies, has led to the city shutting down part of the treatment system.
Now residents are complaining because the insects quickly spread into nearby neighborhoods, noted the release.
