Fly Screens Guide

 

Fly screens are essential for controlling flies. Different breeds of fly such as bluebottles, the common housefly and cluster flies can make homes uninhabitable and make businesses premises appear unsightly without the aid of quality fly screens.

If you haven't installed fly screens and think you have a fly infestation there are many telltale signs that can clarify the situation.


  • Increased numbers of flies flying through your property are an obvious sign, particularly in winter or if you live in an area with a cool climate.

  • Fly droppings or fly spots are a tell tale sign especially in areas of increased fly activity.

  • Maggot and fly larvae on your property indicate flies are breeding which suggests a potentially serious fly infestation.

Flies may be more commonplace than other pests especially in domestic life, without fly screens they still pose a serious risk. Flies carry diseases which can easily be transferred across surfaces. If you haven't installed fly screens fly activity can cause cross contamination. An absence of fly screens can be particularly devastating in food preparation areas.

If you have fly screens you won't have to worry about tackling fly infestations. If you don't have fly screens then you will need to contact fly control specialists. Pest control professionals will disrupt the flies breeding environment, effectively reducing the population and preventing them from further reproducing. Once the species of fly has been correctly identified fly control methods such as fitting fly screens can be implemented to reduce the fly infestation considerably.

A range of insecticides can be applied to deal with specific species of fly. Insecticides can be administered in a variety of ways to suit different problems. Once the fly infestation has been disposed of a range of fly screens systems can be deployed to prevent flies from returning to the premises.
