    Inspection and identification

    First we visit your property and find exactly where the bees are nesting and how they are getting in. We identify whether they are honey bees, bumble bees or masonry bees, because each needs a slightly different approach. You will get a clear explanation of what is happening and whether full bee nest removal is needed.

    Targeted fly treatment

    Depending on the species, we use a mix of professional insecticides (fly control treatments) that reach every stage of the life cycle - far more effective than shop products! This can include residual sprays, ULV fogging and safe drain treatments for drain flies, all applied by trained technicians. All products are used at professional strength and applied carefully so they are safe for people and pets once dry. You will usually see a big reduction in flies shortly after treatment.

    Prevent flies returning

    To stop flies returning we help with simple proofing and hygiene changes. This might include sealed bin lids, cleaning behind appliances, fixing gaps around pipework or improving ventilation in lofts. You receive clear aftercare guidance on preventing fruit flies, keeping flies away from bins and what to do if you ever see early signs of a new fly problem.

Signs you may have a fly infestation

Some flies are normal, especially in summer, but you may need fly pest control if you notice:

  • Lots of flies in the kitchen or living room that do not disappear when windows are opened

  • Small black flies in the kitchen or around sinks and plugholes

  • Fruit flies hovering over fruit bowls, beer bottles or recycling bags

  • Flies nesting in window frames, especially on sunny sides of the house

  • Many flies in the loft or spare room, often cluster flies gathering on windows

  • Bad smells and flies near bins, drains or under floorboards

If you are asking yourself how many flies count as an infestation, the answer is usually when you notice them every day or in many rooms. At that point it is worth calling a fly exterminator rather than relying on fly spray alone.

Types of flies we treat 

We provide fly control for most common fly species in Essex homes and businesses. If you are not sure what type of fly you have, send us a quick photo for us to identify it and recommend the right fly pest control treatment.

  • Small brown flies that hover around overripe fruit, bottles, empty glasses and bins. A fruit fly infestation often starts in warm months and can quickly spread through kitchens and bars. We carry out fruit fly control by treating breeding sites and advising on prevention so they do not return.

  • Also called moth flies. These tiny flies rest on bathroom tiles or near plugholes and breed in the slime inside pipes. Our drain flies pest control service includes treatment for drain flies, advice on cleaning routines and, where needed, CCTV drain surveys to tackle hidden problems that keep drain flies coming back.

  • Cluster flies gather in lofts and window frames in large numbers, especially in autumn and spring. You may suddenly find many flies at the same window or in the loft. We provide cluster fly fumigation and follow up advice to reduce future cluster fly infestations.

  • Larger flies such as house flies, blue bottle flies and green bottle flies are attracted to bins, animal waste and dead rodents. They are a serious hygiene risk. We treat the flies, look for breeding sites in bins or roof spaces and deal with any underlying pest activity such as dead rats in lofts or under floors.
