Cluster Fly Loft Fumigation in Islington: what we see locally
Cluster flies breed in grassland, so they're less common in Islington than in the suburbs. But homes near Highbury Fields, Finsbury Park and the slopes towards Hampstead Heath, in Tufnell Park, Archway and Highbury, can see them gathering in roof voids and top-floor windows in autumn.
If you're seeing slow, buzzing flies at top-floor windows, we can identify them and fumigate the roof space if there's safe access.
Cluster flies are larger and slower than house flies, and they often appear in groups on sunny windows in January and February. They don't breed indoors or spread disease, but in numbers they're unpleasant and tend to return to the same buildings each year.
