Commercial Fly Control – Termite and Pest Control

The best way to kill flies in a restaurant is via mechanical trapping on sticky paper. However, this might be ugly and impractical. The most effective way to get rid of flies in a restaurant or working kitchen is to:

Prevent them from entering, by using fly screens on all doors and windows. Don’t leave doors and windows open. For example, don’t have totally open entrances without protection.
Additional fly screens to access the kitchen area. The staff would need to open a mesh gate to enter/exit the kitchen area. All windows and doors to be screened off.
No open food on display. All food should be covered, or behind fly-proof mesh screens or glass.
Tables, counters, floors and walls should be kept very clean. Regularly clean with hot soapy water. Change the water regularly. If the water starts to get dirty, replace it with hot clean soapy water and then continue cleaning. Tables and counters should not be sticky. If you see flies on the tables and counters, it probably means that they are not clean.
Clean up food scraps, oil spills and dirty greasy areas around work benches, tables and counters.
Clean drains, toilets areas, and inside garbage bins. Remove waste regularly. Bins should be closed and fly-proof. The garbage area should be clean and tidy. No rotting foods.
Spray a repellent insecticide on the external walls, window and door frames. The flies will be less interested to rest in these areas.
