Fly Control services are designed to address persistent fly activity inside homes and businesses where flies become both a nuisance and a sanitation concern. Flies can be embarrassing, disruptive, and unhygienic, with certain species capable of spreading bacteria when they land on food, preparation surfaces, or high-touch areas.
Southern Pest Management provides professional Fly Control for properties in Dawsonville, Cumming, Johns Creek, and Alpharetta, focusing on identifying attractants, eliminating breeding sources, and preventing ongoing fly activity rather than offering short-term relief.

FLY CONTROL SERVICES & APPROACH
Fly activity can stem from a wide range of sources, including moisture, organic buildup, food residues, drains, and improperly managed indoor or exterior conditions. Common fly issues may involve house flies, fruit flies, fungus gnats, or other nuisance species, each requiring a different control strategy.
Our Fly Control services follow Integrated Pest Management (IPM) principles and may include:
- Identification of the fly species and breeding source
- Inspection of interior and exterior attractants
- Recommendations for sanitation and moisture correction
- Targeted treatments to reduce adult activity and interrupt breeding
By addressing both the cause and the conditions supporting fly activity, we provide more effective and longer-lasting control.

Monthly & Bi-Monthly Pest Control Services
Southern Pest Management offers monthly and bi-monthly pest control programs that allow for consistent monitoring and seasonal adjustments. These service intervals are especially effective for fly control, as conditions and activity levels can change rapidly throughout the year.
We do not rely on infrequent or extended-interval programs, which often allow fly problems to reappear between visits. Our service plans focus on prevention, accuracy, and dependable results.
Why Professional Fly Control Matters
Recurring fly problems are rarely solved by traps or sprays alone. Without identifying breeding sources and attractants, fly activity often returns quickly. Professional Fly Control addresses why flies are present, where they are coming from, and how to prevent future outbreaks.
If you’re experiencing ongoing fly issues in your home or business, Southern Pest Management offers practical, proven Fly Control solutions tailored to North Georgia properties.

TOP 15 MOST COMMON FLY CONTROL FAQ’S
Why do I suddenly have house flies inside my home?
House flies usually enter homes looking for food, warmth, and breeding sites. Open doors, damaged screens, gaps around windows, and garages are common entry points, especially during warm months.
What attracts house flies to homes in North Georgia?
House flies are attracted to food odors, trash, pet waste, moisture, and organic material. North Georgia’s warm climate accelerates fly breeding, making infestations more common during spring and summer.
Are house flies dangerous or just annoying?
House flies are more than a nuisance. They can spread bacteria and pathogens by landing on food, counters, and surfaces after contacting trash, waste, or decaying material.
How do house flies get inside if doors are usually closed?
House flies can enter through small gaps around doors, windows, soffits, vents, attic openings, and garages. Even brief door openings can allow flies inside.
Do house flies breed inside homes?
Yes. House flies can breed indoors if suitable conditions exist, such as garbage, spilled food, pet waste, or moisture. Fly eggs hatch quickly, leading to rapid population growth.
Why are house flies worse in warmer weather?
Warm temperatures speed up the house fly life cycle. In hot conditions, flies can reproduce in as little as 7–10 days, causing infestations to grow quickly.
Can house flies come from drains or plumbing areas?
House flies themselves do not breed in drains, but nearby moisture, organic buildup, or garbage can attract them. Drain flies are a different species often confused with house flies.
Why do flies keep coming back after I kill a few?
Killing visible flies does not address breeding sources or entry points. As long as attractants or access remain, new flies will continue to enter the home.
Do house flies indicate poor sanitation?
Not necessarily. Even clean homes can experience fly issues due to nearby outdoor sources, trash bins, pet areas, or neighboring properties. Sanitation helps but is not always the root cause.
Can house flies lay eggs in trash cans and garages?
Yes. Trash cans, recycling bins, garages, and outdoor containers are common breeding sites, especially if organic material is present and containers are not tightly sealed.
Are store-bought fly sprays and traps effective?
Retail sprays and traps may reduce visible flies temporarily, but they rarely solve the problem long-term. They do not eliminate breeding sources or prevent new flies from entering.
How do professionals control house fly infestations?
Professional fly control focuses on identifying breeding sources, applying targeted treatments, reducing attractants, and establishing perimeter protection to prevent re-entry.
Can house flies come from nearby animals or wildlife?
Yes. Pet waste, wildlife activity, dead animals, compost areas, and livestock nearby can all contribute to increased house fly populations around a home.
What areas of the home attract flies the most?
Kitchens, trash areas, pet feeding stations, garages, and entryways are the most common indoor fly hotspots due to food odors and access points.
How can I prevent house flies from returning?
Prevention includes sealing entry points, improving sanitation, managing trash properly, reducing moisture, and maintaining a consistent pest control program to stop flies before they enter.
