Yes we do eat some oranges and put the peel in the compost

It will be any decomposing fruit that will attract them. They are
harmless and like many of the other creatures that you will find in a
compost pile it's part of the normal process.

Once you have removed the top few inches that may not yet be ready, you
should have no problem with spreading the contents of the rest of the
bin.
