Fly Identification & Prevention

We have a long list of flies that call the Plymouth, Massachusetts, area home; learn about them here.

What are flies?

All true flies are insects and belong to the order Diptera. Some of their main physical characteristics include:

  • One pair of wings (most other insects have two pairs)
  • A pair of balancing organs (halteres) located just behind the base of the wings
  • Large compound eyes
  • Short antennae

Immature flies are called maggots and look like small, softy-bodied cream-colored worms. Maggots live in water or moist, decaying organic matter.

Here is a quick overview of the most common types of flies that regularly become a problem in our Plymouth homes:

  • Blue bottle flies
  • Cluster flies
  • Drain flies
  • Flesh flies
  • Fruit flies
  • Horse flies
  • House flies

    The owner came out himself and he found a second huge yellow jacket nest that we didn't even know was there and he took care of that nest too.

    "I strongly recommend Combat Pest Control"

    This is our third year with them. We first called because of ants in the house. I couldn't stop them. Combat did the job and we are ant-free. Combat responds quickly to an ant in the kitchen and wasps and bees nests. Thank you Combat !

    - Mark C.
    "Highly recommended."

    I'm very pleased with John's pest control performed on my house in south Weymouth. He has found the nest of the ants. I really appreciate his professionalism. Will hire them again and again.
