Where Do Flies Live & What Attracts Them?
Flies are a nuisance and are also identified with the mechanical transfer of disease organisms. Pathogenic organisms can be transferred by domestic flies.
Habitat Preferences
All flies live around a suitable source of food and moisture. They also prefer moist and warm environments and tend to stay close to kitchens, bathrooms, and drains.
Warm & Moist Spaces
Flies are always looking for a moist, warm space to invade. Many flies settle around drains, sinks, potted plants, and areas with plumbing leaks.
Light Attraction
All flies are attracted to light, so they will also be found around windows if they have made their way inside your home.
Fruit Flies
Fruit flies breed on decaying fruits and vegetables (note that they don't actually have to be rotten). They are attracted to fermenting materials like stale beer or soft drinks.
House Flies
House flies tend to seek out decaying animal flesh or dung in order to breed. They often invade garbage bins, compost, and animal carcasses.
Prevention & Control Methods
Effective fly control requires species-specific approaches and professional expertise to ensure complete elimination.
House Flies Control
Tightly seal garbage containers. Screen windows in summer. Use flypaper or traps to attract and capture flies. Spot treatment of room corners with insecticides to kill resting flies.
Fruit Flies Removal
Remove sources of breeding which include overripe fruit and fermenting materials like stale beer or soft drinks. Use fruit fly traps and eliminate standing water sources.
