Fly Control in Durban
Flies are more than annoying — they spread over 60 diseases including Salmonella, E. coli and cholera by contaminating food surfaces. For restaurants, food manufacturers and homes in Durban, effective fly control is essential for health, comfort and compliance.

Our Process
Professional Treatment Process
Species & Source Identification
We identify the fly species present and locate breeding sources — which may include drains, waste areas, organic matter, or nearby agriculture.
UV Light Traps
We install professional UV fly light units in strategic indoor locations. These attract and capture flying insects discreetly and hygienically, ideal for food premises.
Residual Surface Treatment
A residual treatment is applied to surfaces where flies rest — walls, ceilings, and eaves — providing ongoing knockdown of flies that land on treated surfaces.
External Fogging & Baiting
For outdoor fly problems, we offer space treatments and fly bait application to reduce adult fly populations around outdoor areas and waste zones.
Exclusion & Prevention
We advise on fly screens, air curtains, waste management and drain cleaning to address the conditions that attract and breed flies.

FAQ
Fly Control FAQs
We treat house flies, fruit flies, blowflies, drain flies and cluster flies. Each species has different breeding habits and behaviour, so we tailor the treatment approach to the specific fly problem at your property.
Yes. Our professional UV fly light units are HACCP-compliant and designed for food premises. They use UV light to attract flies and a glue board to capture them hygienically — no 'zzap' or insect fragments. They're discreet and wall-mounted.
Fruit flies breed in fermenting organic matter — ripe fruit, dirty drains, spilled drinks and organic waste. We treat drains with specialised products, advise on source elimination, and can install traps. Removing breeding sources is key to long-term control.
For commercial premises, we recommend UV fly light units be serviced every 4–6 weeks, with glue boards replaced and UV globes checked. This is included in our commercial service agreements. Globes should be replaced annually.
Yes. We offer external fogging and fly bait treatments timed before outdoor events to reduce fly activity. For ongoing outdoor fly control, we recommend regular treatments during the warmer months when flies are most active.
