When flies or moths keep coming back

Stop flies and moths at the source

Flies and moths often show up when there is an accessible food source, moisture, or sheltered areas for eggs and larvae. Our process focuses on locating where the activity is starting, then treating so the insects are less able to survive and reproduce. For service details specific to your issue, visit the service page.

  • Common signs include swarms around lights, small moths near windows, and insects found near pantry or stored items.
  • We assess where they are entering, resting, or breeding, rather than treating randomly across the whole home.
  • Before and after the visit, simple household steps can reduce reinfestation and improve outcomes.
  • If the issue persists, we can re-check and adjust the plan based on what is still being found.
What flies and moths look like

You might notice flies gathering around kitchen areas, bins, or bathroom vents, especially when lights are on. With moths, you may spot small, fluttering insects near curtains and windows, and sometimes find webbing or damaged stored items.

How control works

Inspection to targeted treatment

The goal is to identify why flies or moths are active in your home and address the conditions that support them. 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney uses an inspection-first approach, then applies treatment based on what we find and where activity concentrates. For the full procedure, see the service page.

1

Site inspection and cause check

We look for likely sources such as food residue, bins, moisture areas, window or door entry points, and where moths are resting or where stored items appear affected.

2

Treatment matched to the findings

Treatment is selected based on the source and the life stage we are seeing, focusing on the areas where insects are most likely to be coming from or hiding.

3

Preparation and safety steps

Before the visit, we provide prep instructions to reduce disruption to household areas and improve effectiveness, with attention to safety around children and pets.

4

Aftercare guidance

After treatment, you will receive steps to follow in the days after the visit so you do not reintroduce conditions that bring insects back.

Flies and moth control questions

How do I tell if it is flies or moths in my home?

Flies are typically seen actively flying around kitchen or other lit areas, while moths often flutter near windows, curtains, or stored-item locations. If you can note where you spot them most often, that helps match the control plan to the cause.

Where do flies usually come from inside a home?

In many homes, flies are drawn to accessible food residue, bins, and moisture-related areas. During an inspection, the technician looks for attractants and likely breeding sources that match your sightings.

Why are moths showing up near windows or curtains?

Moths are commonly found near light and sheltered resting spots, and they can also be linked to issues with stored items. An inspection helps identify what is attracting them and where activity is concentrated.

What should I do before the technician arrives?

You will receive prep instructions to follow before the visit. These are designed to make treated areas accessible, reduce disruption, and improve the effectiveness of the service while keeping children and pets in mind.

What should I do after treatment to help prevent the problem returning?

After treatment, follow the aftercare steps provided with your service. This usually includes household checks and cleaning or storage steps that reduce the attractants and harborage conditions that let insects return.
