Explore this serviceWhy do flies keep coming back?
Flies don't come from nowhere. House flies breed in trash, compost and pet waste. Drain flies grow in the slime inside drains. A sudden swarm of big, shiny flies usually means something died nearby. Find the source and the flies stop.
That's why good fly control starts with a look around, not a spray. Clean or remove what they're breeding in, close the gaps they use to get in, and use traps to confirm they're gone. Cluster flies, which winter in attics and walls up north, need sealing before fall.
Below you'll find how to tell flies apart, how to clean a drain fly drain, when to call for help and what fly work usually costs.
What kind of fly problem are you seeing?
Flies at sunny windows
Big, slow flies gathering at windows in fall or on warm winter days are usually cluster flies coming out of the walls.
Tiny fuzzy flies by the sink
Moth-like flies near drains are drain flies. Tape over the drain overnight; flies stuck to it confirm the source.
A sudden swarm and a smell
Shiny green or blue flies plus a bad smell usually mean a dead mouse or bird nearby.
What should you ask before booking?
Ask what the visit includes, how much it costs, and whether a follow-up is included. It’s also helpful to know what you’ll need to do before treatment and when you can use the area again.
Have children or pets at home? Mention them when discussing treatment. For a business, let the company know your opening hours so you can talk about a convenient time to visit.
How fly activity changes through the year
- Spring: Flies return as the weather warms. A good time to check screens and door sweeps.
- Summer: Peak season. Heat speeds up the life cycle, so empty and rinse trash bins often.
- Fall: Cluster flies look for a way into walls and attics in the North. Seal gaps early.
- Winter: Cluster flies can appear at windows on warm days. Elsewhere it's the quiet season.
