Cluster Fly Loft Fumigation in Havering: what we see locally
Cluster flies breed in grassland and pasture, where their larvae feed on earthworms, and Havering has more farmland than almost any other London borough. Fields around Upminster, Cranham, Noak Hill and Havering-atte-Bower, and country parks such as Bedfords Park and Hornchurch Country Park, support huge numbers.
In autumn, the adults look for warm, sheltered places to spend the winter, and the lofts of nearby houses are perfect. They crawl in under roof tiles and through gaps at the eaves, then appear at upstairs windows on sunny days. Our fumigation treats the whole loft space in one visit.
Homes in Upminster, Cranham, Harold Wood, Collier Row and Gidea Park are most often affected, and the flies tend to return to the same houses every year.
