Fly Control Service

The three most common species of flies indoors are the house fly, drain fly and fruit fly (drosophilid). House flies breed in decaying matter and can be found around trashcans. They feed on sewage, garbage and rotten produce. Drain flies are found in bathrooms and kitchens, as they breed in drain build-up and sewage. Fruit flies are typically around fresh garbage or ripening fruit. These pests breed in rotting vegetables and fruit, as well as drains.

Cleanliness and exclusion are key to preventing flies and fly reproduction. Ensure all trash bins have tight-fitting lids and clean your drain pipes regularly with a bristle bush to help prevent buildup. Pooling water, lawn clippings and other organic matter should be removed from your yard quickly to help prevent breeding. To avoid flies entering your home, caulk any cracks around doors and windows and make sure screens fit properly without tears.
