COMMON FLY QUESTIONS

Professional fly control is more effective than DIY methods, as it addresses the root causes of infestations. Experts use targeted treatments to eliminate flies and prevent their return, ensuring a fly-free environment and reducing health risks associated with flies.

Flies can contaminate food and surfaces with bacteria and pathogens, leading to health issues. While they don’t cause structural damage, their presence can degrade the sanitary conditions of your home.

A fly infestation is evident if you see an unusual number of flies indoors, particularly around food and waste. You might also notice maggots, which are fly larvae, in garbage or decomposing organic matter.

Prevent fly infestations by maintaining cleanliness. Keep food covered, dispose of garbage regularly, and ensure that windows and doors are fitted with screens. Clean up spills promptly and eliminate standing water where flies might breed.
