House Flies

What are house flies?

house fly found in nashville tn

One of the most common pests found in Tennessee homes is the house fly.

Measuring about ¼ of an inch in length, house flies are grey with four distinct black vertical lines on the top of their body.

House flies need a water source because they constantly salivate; they use their saliva to liquefy solid foods because they are only able to ingest liquids.

Are house flies dangerous?

House flies are not capable of biting, however, they can spread as many as 65 dangerous diseases to humans. House flies land and feed on materials in garbage dumps and sewers as well as animal excrement. When they land on food to feed, they will defecate on the food; it is as if they were specifically designed to transmit bacteria and disease.

Why do I have a house fly problem?

House flies may be breeding and feeding on garbage cans or other debris outside of your home. These flies will then make their way into your home from the outside in search of other food sources.

Can I do it myself?

Having house flies in your home is usually due to sanitation and exclusion issues. Sometimes it is difficult to pinpoint exactly where the flies are breeding in and around your home or even where they are entering from the outside. House flies can be quite numerous and active during the summer months, making them difficult to control.
