Fly Control Services for Homes and Commercial Buildings in the Milwaukee Area

Fly Infestation Food Processing Plant Milwaukee

The professional exterminators at Ehlers Pest Management have extensive experience identifying and exterminating a variety of flies native to Wisconsin. Our fly removal treatment begins with identifying the fly species inhabiting your home or commercial building. Depending on what kind of flies you have, we may suggest organic pest control methods first such as non-toxic traps.

Flies are relatively harmless, but when you have an infestation, they start to pose a threat to you and your family. In great numbers, flies can:

Carry diseases such as salmonella, E. coli and cholera
Contaminate food and drink with fecal matter
Breed quickly and overrun your property

For larger fly infestations our Milwaukee exterminators may use chemical-based applications to target key problem areas with precision. Before leaving, we will provide you with important tips on how to prevent fly problems in the future, including sanitation, structural exclusion, and environmental modifications. Whatever your fly problem is, our pest control experts can help. Call Ehlers Pest Management today to set up an appointment.

Signs You May Have a Fly Infestation

Seeing egg clusters – A house fly will lay up to 900 eggs in her lifetime, and she will lay them in filthy, moist areas inside warm enclosures, like the damp corners of kitchens or bathrooms.

Seeing maggots – The fly eggs will hatch into maggots, or small worm-like white larvae. They are often found in the same filthy, moist areas the eggs are laid in.

Numerous flies indoors – Seeing one or two flies in the house isn't considered an infestation. If flies are continuously breeding inside your home, large numbers will keep showing up and will not disappear without intervention.

Blow (Bottle) Flies Fly Extermination Racine

The blow (bottle) fly, is metallic green, blue, or copper depending on the species. This species of fly ranges in size from ¼ inch to ⅜ inch. Blow flies spend the warm summer months nesting in homes or buildings. They are attracted to food odors, air currents from cracks around windows and doors, or doors opened for ventilation. Garbage bins, dumpsters, and rotting vegetative matter are blow flies' favorite breeding grounds. Dozens of blow flies suddenly appearing in a building signifies the rotting presence of a dead animal.

Cluster flies are black, medium-sized flies growing up to ⅜ inch long. Like box elder bugs and ladybugs, they infest warm buildings to survive the winter. Cluster flies swarm the southern and western walls of Wisconsin buildings and homes in early autumn and nest in crevices throughout the winter.

The face fly is dark gray with four stripes on top of the thorax and about ¼ inches long (identical to a house fly).
