Trickling Filter Problems:

Filter Flies

Trickling Filters breed filter flies. Filter flies are tiny flying insects which can quickly

populate within and on top of the Trickling Filter and become a problem within the facility

and community.

Routine chlorination of Trickling Filters can help manage zoogloeal mass, filter fly and snail

populations.
