Well, it certainly feels annoying not just by the sight of such pesky insect, hearing its buzzing sound around you is enough to turn off your good mood. A single fly is capable of laying 9,000 eggs, imagine what it does to your food before you ingest the food together with the eggs in it \u2026 Totally unimaginable!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some ways to help you ward these pests off or minimize their unwanted presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.antipest.com.my\/apblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Flies-on-watermelon.webp\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.antipest.com.my\/apblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Flies-on-watermelon.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1610\" width=\"356\" height=\"227\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.antipest.com.my\/apblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Flies-on-watermelon.webp 600w, https:\/\/www.antipest.com.my\/apblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Flies-on-watermelon-300x191.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 356px) 100vw, 356px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>(i) Flies are attracted to strong scent of food. Keep the kitchen door and window closed when you cook; this, however, can be impractical, as doing so can be very stuffy in the kitchen. An alternative suggestion would be to place a fan in the kitchen and direct the running fan to the open door or window, this is because flies hate to be blown by wind. Clean up the food after meal and make sure there are no leftover remnants on the dining table or the cooking place\/space (for example, the frying pan). Wash the dishes and do not let them stay uncleaned overnight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(ii) Seal the uneaten cooked food and place it in the refrigerator or store the excess food in tight container. Waste food must be discarded in the trash can and the lid must be closed securely. Get rid of the trash the next day. Flies crave for compost too, ergo, keep the compost as far away from the house as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(iii) Flies love to wander around animal feces. If you have a dog or cat, be sure to dispose of its excrement in a proper manner by flushing it in toilet, burying it or putting in a plastic bag, seal the bag &amp; discard it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(iv) Flies like to hide in bushy shrubs and tall grass. Hence, it is recommended to mow your grass often and manicure your lawn on a regular basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(v) Like mosquitoes, flies desire for standing water. Drain the unwanted or excess water around your house. Pour boiling water down the drains and cover them up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(vi) If you still see flies around despite undertaking the above-mentioned preventive measures, check your house and garden thoroughly to see if there\u2019s any carcass (example, dead rat, dead insects, etc.) or maggot, and dispose of them accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(vii) Engage a pest control professional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact AntiPest (03-8023 1888) today.
