- Look for breeding sites: Flies have very short lifespans and only live between 10 to 25 days. During summertime, flies reproduce and grow very quickly and can grow from egg to adulthood in a matter of days. This happens often inside your home around you may be. how to prevent this? Flies are used to lay eggs in any source of standing water or soluble food source. The most important thing to do is to eliminate these nesting sites to prevent fly infestations around you in your home. Secondly, ensure that these breeding sources are sealed up and make them as inaccessible as possible. Furthermore, keep a vigilant eye on your garbage bins, which are often a hotspot for fly breeding.
- Keep a check on moisture: Flies need to stay hydrated in order to survive. Therefore stay vigilant about moisture and humidity indoors. It is a fact that flies can only lay their eggs on moist surfaces, and can only “eat” liquid of soluble foods, so they need moisture to reproduce, live and thrive. Moreover, increased levels of humidity are directly proportional to their reproduction. So it’s very important to look for sources of moisture. Look for plumbing leaks, leaking faucets, rotten eatables, etc. Seal the garbage in airtight bags and keep disposing of it as frequently as possible. Use a dehumidifier if indoor humidity is causing problems.
- Restrict food access: The three most common flies indoors are house flies, blowflies, and fruit flies. All three of these flies thrive on rotting, fermenting food materials. Decaying food becomes a fertile ground for house flies to thrive and breed. Overripe products, old meat, spoiled milk, fermenting liquids, and other pungent foods are the main sources aiding their growth and activity. Prioritize removing these items from your home before it gets worse. You must dispose of garbage on an urgent basis regularly, pay attention to the expiry dates of the products, and keep pantry items in airtight jars. Last but not least keep a check on crumbs and spills too.
- Keep your surroundings clean: This should be kept in mind in a bid to keep your surroundings clean to keep the flies away from your house. Moisture, rotten food sources, and humidity attract them outside as much as they do inside. Manure piles, water, humidity, rotting mulch, dying plants, or untended compost piles provide a thriving environment for flies to thrive and reproduce rapidly.
At times outdoor plumbing fixtures may also leak and attract them. So in order to address this issue regularly keep a check on faucets and hoses to make sure they’re not producing standing water.
