Getting Rid of House Flies

When flies land on feces or other material that contains dangerous bacteria, it sticks to their feet. Then they fly into your home and land on a banana or apple that is sitting in your fruit bowl on the kitchen countertop; it’s just that simple.

Thoroughly clean your home, especially the areas where you and your family sit down to eat, with a good disinfectant that has the power required to eliminate any type of filth that a fly may have left behind.

Take Your Trash Out

Every home produces a significant amount of garbage every year; the way that we dispose of that garbage greatly determines whether or not flies will be attracted to our home.

Garbage cans happen to be a fly’s most favorite breeding ground, so keep your bins tightly secured with lids, and be sure that all trash bags are tied as tightly as possible.

Garbage bins that are left uncovered or garbage bags that are loosely tied are extremely attractive to flies as it gives them easy access to the waste that is inside. Flies will begin to gather around your garbage more often and seem never to leave if they can get into the bins easily.
