First of all, what exactly is a cluster fly anyway? If you’re being bothered by flies that look quite similar to a common house fly, but move a bit slower, you are likely dealing with cluster flies here in Edmonton.
In the grand scheme of things, this isn’t a disastrous problem, but they sure can be annoying! You shouldn’t be annoyed in your home — it should be a safe and comfortable space. That’s where we come in. We’ll get rid of your cluster fly problem right away. Just give us a call at 780-906-4324 or get in touch to schedule an appointment.
Cluster flies typically make their pesky way into your home in the fall, when they are seeking a warmer place to hang through the winter. They hibernate in attics and in wall voids (the space between your drywall and the outside of your home, for example) and then when the weather warms they wake up in swarms. Typically, they’ll cluster around windows or other warm, sunny spaces and their excrement can cause quite a mess.
Even though they aren’t dangerous, this is still a pest problem you want to take care of right away! Do not try to kill them in your attic or wall voids using an over-the-counter treatment — their bodies will attract other pests. A professional treatment is the safest way to get rid of your cluster fly problem.
After we perform your cluster fly removal treatment, we’ll give you tips to keep them from coming back next spring. We’ll specifically look for any nooks and crannies and cracks in the exterior walls of your home that should be patched up.
