People associate flies with poor cleanliness, these pests annoy homeowners and disgust customers of many commercial businesses.
Flies carry many disease organisms and can deposit these on any surface that they land on such as worktops, food items or bars.
The UK has a wide variety of species of flies that are classed as pests, due to the fact that they can be major carriers of diseases such as Salmonella spp. and E.coli.
No matter what the species of fly you may have that presents a risk to your property, prevention is better than cure to protect your business’s reputation. Vergo has a number of methods at its disposal that can be deployed to control the risk of infestation.
All species of flies will live outdoors in the UK. They are highly mobile and will find the smallest gap to enter a building and infest favourable habitats with your property. Each species has its own niche as can be seen below.
Here we explore the common flies of the UK. Read more to take a closer look at the various fly species from across the country.

How do I choose the right EFKs
There are various factors to consider when choosing the right EFK for your premises. Depending on the unit’s location, you may select a discrete unit disguised within an aesthetically pleasing uplighter unit. Alternatively, in food preparation areas where hygiene is critical, you may choose an LED, glass-free, glue board unit like the LED EcoFly to eliminate the risk of food contamination with glass or shattered flying insects.
The effectiveness of an EFK depends on the size of an area and the location of the EFK(s). Therefore, seeking professional help is always advisable to ensure you have the optimal solution for your space to maintain a fly-free environment.
