Fly control is crucial for businesses that deal with food, including restaurants, food processing facilities, hotels, grocery stores, hospitals, and schools. Not only are flies a nuisance, but they are also a common cause of food contamination, known to spread several diseases, including salmonella and E.Coli.
What Causes Flies In Your Business?
Flies are commonly attracted to businesses due to the availability of food sources and breeding grounds. Improper waste disposal, food storage, and inadequate cleaning of spillages can provide flies with food and create ideal breeding sites. Additionally, improperly sealed doors, unscreened windows, and any cracks or gaps in the exterior can invite flies into your property. To spot signs of fly issues, look for an increased number of flies around waste areas, food storage, and preparation areas, or the presence of larvae (maggots), indicating a potential breeding site.
