According to Terminix.com:
"Mayflies cannot be controlled through treatments because they breed in aquatic environments and only become pests when attracted by outdoor lights to buildings. Any emergence of mayflies, however, should last only a few days. Where these insects become a problem, exterior light fixtures should be turned off or you should use yellow “bug lights” bulbs. Commercial buildings should use sodium vapor lamps in fixtures rather than mercury vapor lights. "

Mayflies have invaded my house. How do I get rid of them?
It's that time of year -- mayflies have invaded my house! We had friends over and grilled out this evening, and I guess opening the door so many times has let them in. I have mayflies everywhere. How do I prevent a mayfly from entering my house? Very annoying...

Also, if you have any plant or fruit around your home. Throw them out (or place them outside). Also, check to make sure that your sinks are draining properly, they could be attracted to the stagnant water.
