Flies are a persistent trouble in Australia. They are single handedly capable of disrupting your peace though their constant buzzing and zooming. In Australia, especially during the summer when the weather is warm and humid, flies can be a constant nuisance in home and commercial spaces. Although only some of the described fly species in Australia are considered as pests, these flies can be a handful.
Too many flies? Here’s the reason…
Cleanliness is not in a fly’s nature. Flies love damp spaces like dumps, sewers, and garbage heaps. Decaying matter, feces and garbage is gourmet food for them, which are also known to contain a plethora of harmful microorganisms. Flies are active transmitters of as many as 65 severe human diseases such as:
- Typhoid fever
- Dysentery
- Cholera
- Poliomyelitis
- Yaws
- Anthrax
- Tularemia
- Leprosy
- Tuberculosis
While it’s not always possible to behold, flies defecate and regurgitate on every surface they set foot on. Thus, even if your food is covered, and everything’s stored in tightly closed containers, you still are not safe.
Flies zooming in your restaurant is a red flag
In restaurants and commercial kitchens, the presence of flies can besmirch the goodwill of your restaurant in seconds. Imagine your customers are enjoying a delicious meal and suddenly, flies start swarming around them, compelling them to forget about their food and focus on swaying flies. Presence of flies in the kitchen is directly indicative of poor hygiene within and surrounding your commercial kitchen, and trust us, nobody would want to dine in with flies. If not controlled, a fly infestation might become a chronic mayhem, driving your business downhill.
Chemical fly repellents are a bad idea
Using fly spray in commercial settings including kitchens and restaurants is not a formidable option. Aerosols and chemical sprays contain extremely harmful chemicals, which are not to be sprayed or applied around food. If you use chemicals, you’re jeopardising the safety of your kitchen as well as many customers who dine in your restaurant. As a temporary measure, many commercial kitchen owners deploy zappers. While electric zappers may seem to serve the purpose of commercial fly killers, the relief is momentary. Moreover, zappers are extremely difficult to clean, and the smell they give off is also not fit for kitchen settings. Last but not the least, some may consider using rather innocent sticky fly traps as commercial fly bait, but covering large spaces cannot be done as efficiently by these traps.
