Flies are one of the common pests affecting homes across London therefore, fly control is important as they are known to spread diseases, bacteria, contaminate food and cause allergic reactions.
The most common flies to affect homes are cluster flies, fruit flies, blue bottle and mosquitoes or midges.
Fruit flies are generally found around rotting fruit and vegetables, also in other sugary items such as beer and alcohol and fermenting liquids like milk. Fruit flies can transmit bacteria via the fruit they infect.
Cluster flies are often found in large numbers in upper rooms, attics, cavity walls and are often seen around window frames. They have a painful bite and hibernate over winter.
Bluebottle flies are often found on refuse tips, rotten food, animal matter,bins and rubbish. They can spread bacteria, as they feed on faeces and rotting food.
Flies can spread diseases like salmonella or E.coli. Flies can carry the pathogens that cause typhoid, a highly contagious fever.
Flies can contaminate food with bacteria and parasites, which cause food poisoning and other illnesses.
