Preparation before the treatment

Clear kitchen worktops
including under the cooker and inside kitchen cabinets, of crumbs and grease.
Remove any food
left out, including pet food.
Cover cutlery, food, clothes, towels, and toothbrushes
to prevent them from coming into contact with the treatment.
For filter flies, sewage flies, or drain flies,
wash away any sludge around drains, gutters, and other affected areas.
For blowflies, bluebottles, or greenbottles
identify and remove the source of food, such as rotting food, animal carcasses, or rubbish.
In pubs and bars
dispose of beer bottles and clean any sticky residue behind the bar to prevent fly breeding.
Aftercare Instructions

or letting pets into the area until the insecticide is dry.
If insecticide
comes into contact with skin, wash it off immediately.
Residual insecticide remains

How Our Flies Control Treatment Works?
We use a targeted approach to eliminate different types of flies:
- Residual insecticide application: This is applied to interior walls, ceilings, and other surfaces, killing flies when they land on them. It provides lasting protection for 1 to 3 months.
- Specialised insecticide for drains: For filter flies, sewage flies, and drain flies, we apply a specialized insecticide directly to breeding sites such as drains.
- Fogging treatment for cluster flies: Fogging is the most effective method to treat cluster flies, as it allows the insecticide to penetrate into cracks and crevices where flies may be hibernating.
- After treatment, you may see dying flies for up to 4 weeks, depending on the temperature and the amount of insecticide absorbed.
