Preventing a Fly Infestation
Getting rid of flies can be difficult because their lifespan is so short. After eggs are laid, they begin hatching in less than one day. After hatching, the maggots begin to develop into flies, shedding their skin along the way. In less than a week the maggots can turn into flies and start wreaking havoc on your house.
If you want to minimize the flies that are in your home, the first thing you need to do is get rid of their breeding grounds. If they don’t breed, they won’t lay eggs that eventually grow into flies. The most common breeding ground for flies is trashcans. Take trash out often and remember to regularly rinse out your trashcans to reduce the likelihood of a fly infestation.
