Direct Health Risks:


Fly infestations pose direct health risks to employees and customers, compromising hygiene standards by exposing the environment to fly-borne diseases.

Reputational Costs:


Failure to implement effective fly control measures puts your business at risk of losing the trust of both customers and employees in the site's hygiene standards.

Legal Implications:


Fly infestations may result in legal consequences such as fines or closure for non-compliance with health and safety regulations.

The Common Culprits

PEST ID:

Flies

House flies, fruit flies, and drain flies are among the common culprits that are attracted to industries such as food establishments, warehouses, and healthcare facilities due to the presence of food sources, organic waste, and moisture. These flies not only pose health risks but also disrupt operations and tarnish reputations.

Did you know that house flies alone can carry over 100 different pathogens, making them a significant health hazard in various industries

Knowing The Signs

There's a few signs that may indicate you have a fly problem that needs professional attention,
some of which are more noticeable than others. Here's what you can look out for:

Fly Clusters


The most obvious sign to look out for is clusters of flies buzzing around, this can be indoors or outdoors.

Eggs or Larvae:


Seeing small white eggs or larvae (Maggots), especially around decomposing organic waste, is another big sign of a fly problem.

Fly Spots (Faecal matter):


Small dark spots or smears which flies leave behind on surfaces when they land to rest. These can be found on walls, worktops, widows and walls.

Dark Clusters:


Dark clusters, usually in corners of rooms, can indicate an area where flies are frequently landing, leaving behind small amounts of mess.
