Has a fly, perhaps several, ever turned your peaceful afternoon into a frustration-filled swatting marathon? Flies have a knack for making their way into our homes and, much to our dismay, exhibiting an unwavering refusal to leave.
They’re not just annoying, though. Their presence can be a substantial cause for concern, especially for commercial business owners. Uninvited flies flitting about your business can lead to a dip in your reputation, questions over hygiene and possibly even legal troubles. Not the kind of visitors you’d like at your workplace, right?
Endlessly swatting flies might start to feel like a new form of cardio, but we all agree it’s not the best way to keep in shape. Beyond being irritating, flies carry diseases and bacteria, spreading them to various surfaces in your home and office. Serving as unwanted guests, they feast on your food, land on your skin and even house their tiny “babies” on your property.
But worry not! We’ve assembled a team of professionals at Sunshine Coast Pest Control to ensure these flighty nuisances are shown the exit from your homes and business premises.
Getting to Know Flies Better - The Need for Professional Pest Control
Australia plays host to an impressive array of pests, including:
- House flies
- Bluebottle flies
- Fruit flies
- Cluster flies
- Drain flies
- Lacewings flies
- Flesh flies
- Bush flies
- And many more!
Regardless of their type, they all share one unwelcome trait - they’re carriers of various diseases and infections that can potentially harm humans and pets.
Are you suspecting a fly infestation? Apart from the sight of flies swarming your property, any sign of maggots will confirm your suspicion. Flies lay their eggs in damp, organic materials, with larvae hatching as their offspring. Also, look for small, dark spots near drains, under sinks, and hidden corners around your property - These are classic signs of breeding flies.
Shoo, Fly! Don’t Bother Me
Following these handy tips can help reduce the risk of fly presence and potential infestation:
- Keep your indoor and outdoor spaces tidy.
- Position flowering plants a distance away from your doors as flies are drawn to their nectar.
- Stay on top of waste management; ensure timely garbage disposal and clean up spills promptly.
- Frequently disinfect gutters and drains, ensuring no blockage provides a potential breeding ground.
- Keep doors and windows shut whenever possible.
