Fly infestations are a persistent issue across Central London, driven by the city's high population density, commercial food outlets, waste build-up, and extensive underground networks. Warm microclimates, poor waste management, and easy access to food sources create ideal breeding conditions for a variety of fly species, including house flies, fruit flies, drain flies and cluster flies.
Common contributors include improper waste storage, blocked drains, food residue, decaying organic matter, and structural gaps that allow easy entry. Commercial kitchens, food markets, and poorly maintained refuse areas significantly elevate local fly activity.
Flies are known carriers of pathogens that can cause food poisoning, gastrointestinal illnesses, and the spread of bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella. In commercial settings, fly activity can damage brand reputation, lead to environmental health notices, and result in financial penalties for non-compliance with hygiene standards.

Common Signs You Need Fly Control in Central London
Frequent Sightings
Regularly spotting multiple flies, especially around windows, food areas, bins, or drains.
It can indicate an infestation commonly caused by blocked drains, food waste or another decaying organism nearby.
Fly Clusters
Seeing groups of fruit flies, drain flies, or cluster flies near sinks, drains, or light sources.
They are attracted to odours and rotting waste, which they use to feed and breed from.
Maggots and Larvae
Finding maggots in waste areas, bins, or food storage is a clear sign of active breeding.
This can reveal a wider problem, especially in busier, commercial locations such as restaurants and bin stores.
Persistent Activity
Ongoing fly presence despite good hygiene may indicate hidden breeding sites or structural issues.
Call in an expert who will be able to assess your situation quickly and recommend the best fly control going forward.

Punctual, professional, and very helpful! Our engineer Darren was absolutely amazing and informative, could not have hoped for a better person to help us out.
I had an issue with rats underneath my floorboards. Deborah who was my main contact from arranging the drain survey through to the completion was professional, helpful and supportive with all my queries. The team of about 5 men that carried out the work over 2 days did a very thorough job, they were efficient and kept me informed at each stage of the process. I would highly recommend Obsidian Environmental Services Ltd.

Matthew is awesome, he worked with us over summer on a problem we had we wish we hadn’t.
