FLIES
What are flies?
There are many types fly species common to our area including house flies, cluster flies and fruit flies. The house fly is approximately 1/8-1/4 inch long. They have a single pair of wings and are gray in color.
Why do I have them?
Flies invade homes and commercial facilities in search of food and conditions that are ideal for breeding and living. They are notorious scavengers that will feed on meat, vegetables and garbage in and around your home.
Are they dangerous?
While flies are often considered a nuisance pest, they can also pose a serious risk. Flies contaminate food and spread diseases when they regurgitate liquefied food onto counters and work surfaces.
How do you get rid of flies?
Getting rid of flies permanently is impossible but with the help of Home Check you can control and reduce fly populations on your property. Contacting Home Check at the first sign of a fly problem is the best way to prevent a larger fly infestation.
Can I do it myself?
Do it yourself fly treatments and control are not effective in getting rid of flies and simply do not work as the chemicals they use are not effective. Remember – if misused or mixed improperly, pesticides can be very dangerous to people and pets.
