Mosquitoes are not the only pests that ruin your backyard fun. Flies are some of the most notorious pests both inside and outside the home and can put a damper on your daily activities. We have all been irritated by flies while spending time outside. These become more of an issue whenever food is involved. We have created proprietary fly traps to ensure you can be fly-free!
Everyone knows that flies are among the most bothersome pests out there. But did you know they are also vectors for serious illnesses? While they might seem harmless, these insects have been found to carry more than 100 pathogenic organisms.
Some of the diseases/disease-carrying organisms spread by flies include:
- Typhoid fever
- Cholera
- Parasitic worms
- Diarrhea
If you’ve ever eaten outside at a restaurant or had a picnic in the park, you’ve probably had to shoo away a fly or two. Flies are considered general feeders, which means they are attracted to a wide variety of substances, from excrement to human food. While it might not seem like a big deal when a fly lands on your sandwich, it’s actually quite unsanitary. Why? Because flies excrete and regurgitate every time they land.
Flies also lay hundreds of eggs during their short lifetimes. What starts out as a relatively small fly problem can soon escalate into an infestation if not given prompt attention. Don’t let this common pest endanger your family’s health!
