Fly Infestation In Coffee Shop

We understood that it was imperative to attend the site immediately, as the problem needed to be dealt with before the flies infested the whole coffee shop, as closing the shop would be devasting.

Having established from Mrs P that the flies were only found in the storeroom, it was imperative to contain the situation, before any flies escaped to infest the rest of the coffee shop.  A Chemical treatment was required to both external and internal areas to the storeroom, to eradicate any larvae (maggots) that may have already been laid in the storeroom.  A second fogging fumigation treatment was also carried out to destroy any airborne flies.

Due to the strength of the chemicals used once the treatments are carried out there should be no access to the storeroom for a minimum of 3 hours.  As the storeroom was situated in a separate building contained in the yard, it would still be safe to use the coffee shop, so the treatments could be carried out keeping the staff and customers safe as they wouldn’t access the storeroom until it was safe.  The following day we contacted Mrs P at headquarters to ensure that the treatment had been successful, she confirmed that he had spoken to Miss R, and that the shop was now fly free!
