Fly Traps – A Plague on your House

Flies can by nasty, annoying, germ-spreading and ugly; even so, having the odd fly in your house might not prompt you to crack out the fly traps. But for the villagers in Burton Leonard a few years ago, fly traps became big business when the Yorkshire village was swamped by flies.

Fly traps – Pest Control

Demand for fly traps increased in the village but fly traps could be in more demand all over the UK as experts blamed the warm weather for the problem. Humid conditions create ideal breeding conditions that result in infestations of cluster flies. Anyone who has tried handling a fly infestation using fly swats or fly spray alone will know how horrible it can be. Fly spray is packed with harmful toxic chemicals that can leave your home impossible to sit in – mothers are particularly reluctant to use poisonous sprays. Professional fly traps are the only way to effectively deal with the problem.

Cluster flies – Infestations

Infestations of Cluster flies are particularly bad – so called because they group together in large numbers, which is why fly traps are so crucial. Those suffering with infestations are literally plagued by the insects. As one resident in the Yorkshire village told the BBC at the time: “…you come down in the morning and the house is full of flies, all over the place.” The residents had to keep their windows closed to keep the flies away, but spraying fly spray in unventilated rooms can be damaging to health. Without effective fly traps, invasions can be an uphill battle. Villagers reported big black swarms of the flies, leaving many fleeing into their homes.

Flies can not only be a nuisance, but a public health risk. If you want flies to buzz off for good – invest in professional fly traps.
