The house fly is one of the most hated and common pests in the world. They can be found in any location around the world, and will infest homes quickly if they detect any rotting or decaying organic matter.

Because house flies feed and breed in rotting material, they can spread harmful bacteria to people and animals, transporting pathogens everywhere they go, so it’s important to perform proper house fly control.

For proper control, you need to identify house fly activity. The common housefly is typically around a fourth of an inch in length. They are usually gray or black in color, with four black stripes on their backs. They have two short wings that do not overlap.

They are attracted to moisture and rotting organic matter, so they can be found in or around trash cans, spoiled food, feces, or compost piles.

To get control of house flies, first sanitize your home. Regularly take out the trash, keeping the garbage in a sealed bin. Clean countertops frequently, clear grease off stove tops, and sweep or mop regularly. If you have pets, pick up or spray down dog droppings and clean cat litter everyday.

Next, use a combination of fly lights, glue traps, and insecticides.

Use Musca-Stik fly traps to capture flies. This is an insecticide-free trap that uses a combination of bright orange paper, glue, and a pheromone attractant to lure and trap the flies. Sprinkle the supplied attractant into the catch basin at the end of the stick. Then hang this in areas you have seen housefly activity. The flies will be attracted to the stick, land, and get stuck - unable to fly away and eventually dying.

If you have flies in a commercial property, you can also use the Mantis fly light trap. This is a light weight, ready to use fly light that uses two, bright UV lights to attract flies. This fly light does not electrocute the flies, but instead lures them to a glue board positioned behind the bulbs where they will get stuck and unable to fly away.

Finally, use Pyrid aerosol as a space spray to kill any remaining flies. Spray the Pyrid where you see fly activity. This does not have a residual, so flies must come into contact with the spray to be effective.

Prevent house flies from returning by keeping your property as clean as possible. Continue to take out the trash, clean kitchens, and minimize decaying organic material.
