Flies at Home and in Food Establishments in Warsaw — Where They Come From and How to Deal With Them
Flies aren't just annoying — they can also carry bacteria between waste and food. Find out what effective fly control looks like in Warsaw.
Why are flies a serious problem?
Flies aren't just annoying — by moving between waste and food, they can carry bacteria responsible for food poisoning.
Carry bacteria
They move between waste, sewage and food, spreading germs.
Contaminate food
They land on food products, leaving bacteria and eggs behind.
Multiply extremely fast
A female lays up to several hundred eggs within a few days.
Hard to eliminate at the source
Larvae develop in hard-to-reach places — waste, compost, gutters.
How to recognise a fly problem
Watch out for the following signs:
- An increased number of adult flies visible in the kitchen or near windows
- Small, white larvae (maggots) in waste containers or compost
- Dark specks (fly droppings) on windowsills, lamps or the ceiling
- Increased activity near bins, drains or food scraps
- Buzzing and repeatedly landing on food despite attempts to shoo them away

is the full development cycle of a house fly — from egg to adult, flying insect.
How to prepare the premises for the treatment?
For the treatment to be fully effective, prepare the premises following our tips:
Seal waste containers tightly
Limit access to the main source of larval development.
Wipe down surfaces after eating
Remove leftovers that attract adult flies.
Check windows and doors are sealed
This makes it easier to fit fly screens and seals.
Empty out standing water
Stagnant water favours the development of certain fly species.
Schedule the treatment outside opening hours
In food establishments, this minimises downtime.
House fly or fruit fly? How to tell them apart
These two insects call for a completely different approach — here's how to tell them apart:
| House fly | Fruit fly | |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Grey, 6–8 mm, distinct wings | Brownish-yellow, about 2–3 mm, very small |
| Where it feeds | Waste, meat, food scraps | Ripe fruit, vegetables, drink residue |
| Where larvae develop | Bins, compost, animal droppings | Fermenting fruit, sink traps, drains |
| Effective method | Insect-killer lamps, removing waste | Removing ripe fruit, cleaning drains |
