Rapid Pest Investigation for a Property in Farnborough
DCL Pest Control was recently called out to a property in Farnborough following reports of a sudden fly infestation inside the home. The client had noticed an increase in fly activity within the kitchen area and wanted the source identified and resolved as quickly as possible.
Fly infestations inside a property are often a sign of an underlying issue such as waste build-up, drainage problems, or concealed pipe defects. For this reason, a fast and accurate investigation is essential to locate the source and prevent the problem from escalating.
Source Located Within Minutes
Upon arrival at the Farnborough property, our specialist team carried out a detailed inspection of the kitchen and surrounding areas. Within five minutes, we successfully located the cause of the infestation.
The issue was traced to a waste pipe that had come away beneath the kitchen sink. Due to the suspended floor construction, this had gone unnoticed, creating an ideal environment for flies to breed. The exposed waste and moisture beneath the floor void had led to increased fly activity entering the kitchen area.
Because the problem was concealed below the floor, it would have continued to worsen without professional investigation and intervention.
Recommended Next Steps
We advised the client on the repairs and treatment required to eliminate the infestation fully. Once the pipework is repaired and the affected area treated, the source of the flies will be removed. We will be returning to carry out the next stage of works.
This project highlights how hidden plumbing issues can quickly lead to pest problems if left untreated. DCL Pest Control provides fast, professional pest investigations in Farnborough, identifying issues at the source and delivering long-term solutions.
