The food waste and garbage thrown out at restaurants can attract a lot of flies. Flies buzzing around your customers is certainly not good for business. This is a guide about getting rid of flies at a restaurant.
We have a small restaurant out in the woods! Our main dish is seafood and crawfish, and the dumpster is far away. The flies still swarm the whole area, and it is getting worse as it gets hotter and hotter! I need a remedy for an outside area. We have tried the bags of water with pennies and bleach. The flies are not scared of their reflection; they like it! Help me please! We have an open area where people sit outside.
You could try a Manitoba Fly trap. There are instructions to build one on the internet. Various flies see it as a moving animal. It is a pyramid structure with a black ball hanging down the middle. The flies get in the structure then fly upward into the trap. Seems to work for the biting flies. If you have filth flies, there are bags or plastic bottles that catch them. A small amount of hamburger or fish in water attracts them. Smelly things to dump or just pitch them out.
