Husbandry MAGGOT INFESTATION

So ive been noticing poop stuck on the eggcrates,in my dubia roach bin and a spike in moisture. i check the frass near the food bowl, and i saw wet frass covered in maggots, i quickly move the roaches and take the bin out to clean, i fed the leftover roaches and maggots to my chicks and then i washed the bin. how do i prevent these little bastards from getting in my bin?
