Blue Bottle Flies mainly infest decaying organic or mammal carcases. They are renowned for feeding on animal excrement, which makes them a huge environmental pest carrying thousands of bacterial diseases.
Cluster Flies inhabit roof spaces between September through to March. The adults lay the eggs externally in flowerbeds and compost heaps. When colder weather arrives they seek shelter to hibernate over winter in roof voids and cavities. Thousands can accumulate leaving householders devastated in early spring when the flies decide to vacate the roof spaces and invade the living areas of the properties.
The Common House Fly can be found in most households throughout the UK. They breed in and around rubbish dumps and decaying matter. Like the Blue Bootle they are famed for carrying a whole host of unwanted diseases. Removing breeding sites is of up most importance when trying to eradicate infestations.
Lesser House Flies thrive in poultry manure and are found around predominately farming environments. House owners in the region of these sites will be able to identify the flies by their erratic flight patterns around lights internally and externally of their properties.

Cluster Flies are a common problem for almost all homes and businesses during the winter months, in the last month alone we have carried out over 400 Cluster Fly treatments throughout the UK, the reason for this being the exceptionally mild weather conditions and these infestations could continue until the first frost sets in.
Cluster Fly populations are known to increase in numbers dependent upon the climate, if the summer months are warmer and longer then there is a great risk that these flies have more time to increase their numbers (and our problems) before the coldness of winter sets in. Once the weather starts to turn the flies will make their way into the building to the warmth and safety of our lofts. It is important to stop these flies in their tracks before they become a reoccurring problem each year.

PEST PROBLEMS FOR SEPTEMBER 2011
Cluster Flies are the main problem in the month of September around the country. Enquires from domestic premises this month has been on the increase and this is partly down to the weather, mainly the “Indian Summer” which has descended upon us. Cluster Flies would usually appear around late fall or early winter and again on sunny days, hence the reason why they have been on the increase. Cluster flies can be found hibernating within your loft space and usually appear in the home buzzing sluggishly around windows or in rooms which are not regularly used, they will also appear in small groups.
