HOUSE FLY CONTROL STEPS:
1. Clean all floors thoroughly of food and soil everywhere throughout facility. Clean soiled equipment, too.
2. Store foods in sealed containers or in refrigerators.
3. Move trash and dumpsters away from doors to kitchen and other entries into facility. Provide tight fitting lids for trash containers.
4. Screen all openings to restaurant. Keep unscreened windows and doors closed. Another option to screening of openings is the use of air curtains.
5. Obtain kitchen approved fly traps and install in a manner that will not contaminate food.
SMALL FLY CONTROL STEPS:
In order to eliminate small flies in a restaurant, you must eliminate the source of them. Killing adult flies will not eliminate the problem.
1. Clean all floors very thoroughly removing all food matter which includes very small bits of food and liquids. Food must be cleaned up from everywhere throughout facility including behind, around, and under equipment. Very small amount of food can propagate an infestation. Food and soil in cracks, between tiles, under loose tiles, in gaps of floor/wall covings, around equipment legs, etc. can be a source of flies. An old lemon or potato, etc. kicked under equipment or counters can be a source of flies.
2. Completely clean out all drains. Sink drains, floor drains, floor sinks, dishwashing connections, insides of dishwasher scrapper units, etc. must be thoroughly scrubbed clean with a brush deep down inside the drain. The biofilm that coats the insides of the drains must be removed physically with a brush down inside of the pipe. A heavy duty drain cleaner that is approved for your pipes must be used to clean the drain afterwards. (DO NOT USE bleach or ammonia – these products will not work).
3. Retile any loose floor tiles and re-grout to eliminate water/food harborage areas. Do the same with wall/floor coving baseboards. This step is critical for some small flies.
4. Remove trash daily. Physically scrub out all trash containers with soap and water.
5. Prevent flies from accessing food. Put all food in completely sealed containers. Store emptied soda, beer, liquor and syrup bottles in a separate sealed room or outside. Use up fruits and vegetables quickly, or store them under refrigeration.
6. Water catch basins of all indoor plants, and refrigeration evaporator trays must be cleaned. Inspect these areas, and plant soil for signs of flies and maggots.
7. Eliminate wet towels, sponges, mop heads and other moisture rich areas to prevent maggots/fly attraction. THIS IS A CRITICAL STEP. Store wiping cloths and mops in tied off plastic bags or sealed buckets at night (or dry completely after using.). Change sanitizing solution, mop water, and towels daily.
8. Remove any standing water. Fix any water leaks.
9. Some types of small flies can be vacuumed up. Use a shop vacuum to capture flies each night from surfaces, and store vacuum in an area outside of facility.
10. Only after all of the above steps are performed, use kitchen approved fly traps. Sticky traps such as gold sticks, and others that use pheromones to attract flies and can be used to monitor a problem. They will not eliminate the infestation but can help determine problem areas and help to remove some flies. Steps above must be completed to eliminate flies first. Install all traps in a manner that prevents food contamination.
