Effective fly pest control for your home

The three main ways to implement effective fly control around your home are:
  • Prevention
  • Deterrent
  • Elimination
Used together, these three strategies should minimise the presence of flies around your home and keep your family safe from harmful disease transmission.


1. PREVENT: Don’t create open invitations for flies to feed and breed

Flies thrive on decay. Whether this is the moist matter produced by garbage and food scraps, the excrement from animals (including humans) or from decaying animal flesh.

It is imperative that you keep your home free from the build up of these matters. This means:
  • empty your indoor rubbish and compost containers regularly
  • clean your rubbish bin regularly
  • check the exterior and interior of your home regularly for dead animals
  • keep your plumbing and waste management in good order
  • install, maintain and repair good quality fly screens on your doors and windows


2. DETER: Safeguard your property

The right insecticides sprayed around your home will keep flies away and stop them from setting up house.
