Flies are everywhere especially during the summer in Australia. Most people assume that flies are harmless and that a small infestation doesn't mean much. Not only they ruin the fun on days where you want to enjoy the sun, they carry diseases like cholera, typhoid, tuberculosis and more. Flies can breed quickly and can even cause food contamination.
Some species of flies can transition from an egg to a fully grown adult within 7 days. This makes it crucial to hire fly pest control services in Melbourne.

How to determine infestations
Keep in mind that flies are everywhere, and it doesn’t take much for them to enter your property every now and then. However, this doesn’t indicate a complete infestation. Here are a few signs to help you determine whether you have an infestation:
Dark Spot Patches – You can notice these dark spots in wall surfaces, drain channels and pipes, fittings, as well as areas near the sink. These are fly eggs and signs of a possible infestation that should be addressed immediately.
Maggots They are flies that are still in the larval stage, but will eventually develop into a full-grown adult. If you notice larvae near trash cans, get in touch with professionals right away.

Frequently asked questions about flies:
How do I know if I have a fly infestation?
Dark spot patches indicate fly eggs and potential infestation, requiring immediate action. A significant daily presence of flies suggests an infestation, particularly around waste bins, waterlogged areas, or guttering. Maggots, the larval stage of flies, found near trash cans, should prompt immediate professional intervention.
Are flies dangerous?
While flies do not typically bite and harm the skin, they can harbor numerous diseases due to their feeding habits on garbage, fecal matter, and decaying food. This exposes them to pathogens like salmonellosis, typhoid, and tuberculosis, which they can transmit to food and surfaces upon landing.
