Fly Management

House flies aren’t just a nuisance; they’re a health hazard buzzing around your home or business. With their ability to spread diseases and contaminate food, it’s essential to tackle these pests head-on. At Seva Facility, we provide expert fly management solutions to keep your environment clean and fly-free.

Why Effective Fly Management is Crucial

House flies are more than just irritating—they pose serious health risks by carrying pathogens and bacteria. They breed rapidly in warm, moist environments and can quickly become a major problem if not managed properly. Effective fly control not only improves hygiene but also helps maintain a comfortable living or working space.

Understanding Fly Behavior

1. Appearance: Adult house flies are small, measuring 4-7.5 mm in length, with females typically larger than males. They have distinctive features: two velvety strips on their face, silver above and gold below, and four narrow stripes on their thorax. Their larvae, cream-colored and greasy-looking, are eyeless and legless, with a tapered body.
2. Breeding Habits: Female flies lay their eggs in clusters of 20-50 on warm, moist materials rich in food. The eggs hatch within 8-20 hours, and the larvae go through three stages over 3-7 days. Fully grown larvae move to a cool, dry place to pupate, often traveling up to 150 feet. The pupa changes color from yellowish to black before the adult fly emerges.
3. Activity Patterns: Flies are typically found resting less than 5 feet from the ground during the day and can be found above 5 feet at night. They stay close to their food sources and are attracted to a wide range of substances, from excrement to human food. They can even liquefy solid foods by regurgitating.

Prevention Tips

• Sanitation: Keep your environment clean by promptly disposing of food waste and maintaining a tidy living area. Regularly clean surfaces and eliminate potential breeding sites.
