There are few things more frustrating than a house full of flies, especially during the warmer months. Whether they are flying around your kitchen or invading outdoor spaces, controlling flies requires a combination of preventative measures, sanitation and targeted treatments with different pesticides.
Flyzone for domestic and agricultural use contains a non-toxic, organic protein bait and can be used safely outside. The bait is activated when lukewarm water is added to the bag. The smell lures flies inside and once trapped, they cannot escape, ensuring efficient fly control. Flyzone traps are particularly useful and effective in targeted outdoor spaces like patios, braais and garbage areas where fly populations tend to be high.
Protek FlyZone disposable fly traps will keep your home and braai area fly-free. The disposable design makes it easy to use – once full, you simply seal the bag and throw it away, eliminating the need for cleaning or maintenance. Simply discard the bag when full.
Protek FlyZone reusable fly traps are a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative to disposable traps. Since they can be emptied, cleaned and refilled with bait, the reusable fly traps save money in the long run. By reducing plastic waste, reusable traps are a more sustainable choice for fly control.
Protek FlyZone Bait is easy and convenient to use when required to replace the bait of your reusable FlyZone system. FlyZone Bait can be used in a variety FlyZone reusable fly traps like FlyZone reusable bag, FlyZone Junior, FlyZone Jumbo, FlyZone Mini and FlyZone Maxi. The different size options make it easy to protect your home and garden against flies, whether you are living in a townhouse or on a farm.
Flies can be particularly annoying, especially in summer when they breed prolifically allowing multiple generations to emerge in a single season. A female housefly will lay 3 000 eggs within her life span of 21 days, usually on organic matter like garbage or manure. The fly larvae will hatch into maggots within 24 hours feeding on the decomposing organic material before pupating and after 3 to 5 days they develop into adult flies, ready to reproduce within a few days.
The house fly acts as vectors carrying and spreading numerous diseases by contaminating food and surfaces with pathogens they pick up from decaying matter such as waste and manure. These pathogens can cause serious, life-threatening diseases in humans and animals including malaria, typhoid fever, salmonella, tuberculosis, conjunctivitis, leprosy and cholera, as well as intestinal worms and the bacteria responsible for dysentery.
Proper sanitation, food hygiene and targeted pesticide treatment is essential in controlling their spread. Firstly get rid of things that attract flies in and around the house, such as dirty dishes, dirty trash cans, compost heaps and pet manure, etc. Food must always be covered, and fruit and vegetables should preferably be stored in a fridge as they undoubtedly attract flies into the house. After that, you should treat inside and outside your home with different fly control products and methods.
