Flies are part of every Queensland summer, but a yard that seems to have far more than usual often has a breeding source close by. In North Brisbane, the usual suspects are wheelie bins left in the sun, compost bays, pet waste and chicken runs. Fly control focuses on those sources as well as the spots where flies rest, so fewer of them end up around the back door and the barbecue.
The crew we book starts with a look around the yard, since spraying alone does little while a bin or compost heap keeps producing more flies. A fly control visit usually covers:
- Bins, bin bays and compost heaps
- Dog runs, chicken coops and pet areas
- Sunny walls, eaves and fences where flies rest
- Doors, windows and outdoor eating areas
- Advice on bin cleaning, tight lids and waste storage
Before the visit, rinse out bins if you can, pick up after the dog and bring in pet food bowls. Close the windows on the sides being treated, and keep people and pets away from sprayed areas until they are dry. If you keep chickens or bees, mention them when you book so the crew can plan around them.
Flies bounce back quickly if the source stays, particularly in hot, humid weeks, so the tips you get on the day matter as much as the treatment itself. Many people pair fly control with a mosquito barrier spray, since both peak in the same months and the crew can cover the whole yard in one trip.
