Fly trap – protecting your environment

Flies are a nuisance and can be deadly if they happen to be carrying a nasty disease when they land on your food or your kitchen surfaces. It’s no surprise that many of us turn to the fly trap in order to rid ourselves of this pest – but with so much emphasis now on the dangers of the use of chemicals, and the harm they can have on our environment, not all fly traps may be suitable.

When a chemical fly trap is no use

For many people, a chemical fly trap will be the only answer, but for many homes and businesses, it’s just not an option. Here are some of the circumstances when a non-chemical fly trap is far better:

  • Catering businesses – on a warm summer day, with your doors and windows open, you’ll be lucky if you don’t get one or more curious flies coming into your premises to investigate your food. The last thing your customers want to see is flies anywhere near your uncovered food or in your preparation area, so you must do everything you can to get rid of them. Chemical fly traps are simply useless in this environment because you can’t spray chemicals near food, or even set up a contained chemical fly trap, just in case. Look for a non-chemical alternative, like Flitrap, which uses no chemicals at all to rid you of your fly problem.
  • Homes and schools – we protect our children as far as we can, and that includes keeping them out of the way of harmful chemicals. Spraying fly spray near children is unsafe, but you want to make sure that flies don’t land on their food and that the environment they play and work in is as clean and secure as possible. A fly trap that uses the fly’s natural habits to trap is far better than one that uses potentially harmful chemicals.
Other businesses – areas that are particularly troubled by flies include stables and farms. Flies are automatically attracted to the manure in these places, which is an ideal place to lay their eggs, but they can bring disease and distress to the animals. Carefully placed, a non-chemical fly trap can get rid of your fly problem without putting chemicals near the animals.
