LOCAL PEST CONTROLLERS ARE IN YOUR AREA DEALING WITH ISSUES NOW!
In most cases, the pest controller applies an aerosol spray that would require no one being in that room for 2 hours. Inspections will also take place to identify the cause of the issue. Surface sprays are also very good as it continues to work so long as it's not mopped away.
Small dark clusters of spots in light areas (the size of a pinhead). Regular sighting of flies around your home, food or bins; and maggots (these are flies in their larval stage) could indicate a potential breeding site on your property.
An estimate of the cost of removing houseflies will depend on how widespread the infestation is. When an infestation is severe, you may have to spend between £150 and £200, and the treatment can take several hours.
The average lifespan of a housefly is between 20-25 days, but they can live up to a month. After maggots appear in a home, adult flies usually appear 1 to 2 weeks later. The flies may continue to emerge for 1 to 3 weeks.
Females will begin producing eggs 48 hours after they have emerged as an adult. During her adult life, approximately 1-3 months, she is capable of producing 4-5 batches of 100-150 eggs. These hatch within 48 hours
Like any pest, flies will stay as close to a food source as possible. Avoid leaving food outside or on worktops. Ensure your food is stored in sealed containers or cupboards and keep your surfaces clean. Also ensure that you regularly check unused spaces in your property.
