Overview What is Forterra's fly control service?
Forterra Fly Control identifies the species first, because each one names its own breeding source, drains, fruit, sanitation or a carrion source in a wall or attic. The source is removed, the area treated, and the quarterly plan from $49/month keeps the pressure down. Door zones and dumpster lines get defended so the outside supply stays outside. If the honest fix is a sanitation change, we tell you that for free. TPCL #850046.

Which fly you have tells us where it's breeding.
Flies are a symptom. Each species breeds in one kind of material, so identifying the fly is the same thing as finding the problem.
SANITATION House fly
1/4 in
- Behavior
- The gray kitchen fly breeds in garbage, pet waste and decaying matter, then walks your counters, carrying dozens of pathogens, salmonella and E. coli included, surface to surface.
- What makes them tricky
- A summer generation takes about a week, so one missed garbage can keeps a home supplied regardless of swatting. The breeding site is the target.
- How we approach them
-
- Breeding material removed or corrected
- Exterior treatment at trash and door zones
- Sanitation gaps flagged in writing
KITCHEN Fruit fly
1/8 in
- Behavior
- Tiny, tan, red-eyed, hovering over ripe fruit, drink residue and recycling bins. A single overripe banana can feed hundreds of larvae, and populations explode in days.
- What makes them tricky
- Traps catch adults while the next wave matures in a forgotten source, juice under the fridge or a slow drain. Finding that source is the entire job.
- How we approach them
-
- The one fermenting source found and removed
- Drains and recycling zones checked
- Knockdown only after the source is gone
PLUMBING Drain fly
1/16 to 1/8 in
- Behavior
- Fuzzy, moth-like flies resting on bathroom walls and rising from sink and floor drains. They breed in the organic film coating pipe interiors, especially in unused guest baths.
- What makes them tricky
- Bleach rolls over the gel film they live in; removal is physical and enzymatic. Stubborn drain fly problems can flag a broken pipe under the slab.
- How we approach them
-
- Pipe film removed with enzymatic foam
- Dry traps and unused baths flagged
- Persistent cases referred for plumbing checks
TELLTALE Blow fly
1/4 to 1/2 in
- Behavior
- Metallic green or blue flies appearing indoors suddenly and in numbers. They breed in carrion, so an indoor burst usually means something died in a wall, attic or crawl space.
- What makes them tricky
- The flies are the messenger, remove the dead animal, often a rodent, then close the route it used. That exclusion work is ours.
- How we approach them
-
- The carrion source located and removed
- Entry route traced, then sealed
- Exclusion quoted so it doesn't repeat
Why swatting never ends it
Kill the breeding site, and the flies end themselves.
Every fly infestation runs on a breeding site, and adults die in days without it. Finding and killing that source is the method; everything else is swatting.
Stage 01
01
Trace species
The species narrows the hunt to one kind of material.
The species narrows the search. House flies say waste, fruit flies say fermenting produce, drain flies say pipe film, blow flies say carrion. The inspection follows the fly to its source.
Stage 02
02
Remove source
No nursery, no next generation. It's that direct.
The breeding material gets removed or treated, drains cleaned with enzymatic foam, waste points corrected, the dead animal located and removed. Adults die of old age in days; without a nursery, the population is over.
Stage 03
03
Defend entries
Knockdown plus exterior defense at trash and door zones.
Targeted treatment clears the adult population while exterior work on trash areas, door zones and light-drawn congregation points keeps the yard's flies from moving in behind them.

Inside the house
Every fly maps to a source. Here is the map.
Fly control is source-finding. Each numbered spot breeds a different fly, and the species you see tells us which spots to work first.
Interior cutaway. Numbers match the list.
- 01
Sink drains
Drain flies breed in the pipe film; enzymatic foam removes what bleach rolls over.
- 02
Fruit bowl and counters
Fruit flies work ripening produce and sticky spills; one forgotten banana feeds hundreds.
- 03
Trash and recycling
House fly headquarters, where residue in bins breeds a generation a week in summer.
- 04
Appliance gaps
Spills beside the fridge ferment unseen, the fruit-fly source nobody finds without moving it.
- 05
Attic and wall voids
A sudden burst of metallic blow flies means a carcass here, usually a rodent. We find and remove it.
- 06
Window lines
Where the flies collect tells the inspector which room is holding the source.
The fly visit
Forterra's fly process, step by step.
The sequence matters with flies, price, then source, then correction, then defense. Skipping straight to spraying adults is exactly how breeding sites survive a treatment.
- 01
Transparent quote
One minute online or a short call puts the fly-service price in front of you, tied to your home's size. It is in writing before the calendar opens.
- 02
First-visit inspection
Kitchens, drains and trash zones come first, the attic too when blow flies suggest it. Species identification leads straight to every active breeding source.
- 03
Treat and correct
Sources removed or treated, drains foamed, adults knocked down, and exterior fly pressure handled at the trash and door zones.
- 04
Guaranteed results
If the flies return to a treated source, so does the technician, free of charge. The money-back guarantee applies to the service like everywhere else at Forterra.
Frequently asked
Questions, answered plainly.
If you don't see yours, call (817) 665-6527 or text us, a human will answer.
Something changed within the last two weeks. A breeding source appeared. House flies point to waste, fruit flies to fermenting produce or a sticky spill, drain flies to pipe film, and a sudden burst of metallic blow flies usually means a dead animal in a wall or attic. Identify the fly and the source is half found.
They only touch the adults, and adults are the end of the pipeline. In Texas heat many flies go egg to adult in about a week, so the breeding site out-produces whatever a trap catches. Remove the source and the population collapses on its own; that is why our treatment is built around finding it.
Drain flies. They breed in the organic film inside the pipe, and they are common in guest bathrooms where dry traps let them through. Bleach does not fix it; the film has to be scrubbed and enzymatically broken down. If they persist after that, it can flag a plumbing leak worth finding early.
Yes, more than most pests. A house fly moves from garbage, pet waste and carrion straight to food surfaces, carrying pathogens including salmonella and E. coli on its body and in every spot it taste-tests. A kitchen with steady fly traffic is being cross-contaminated daily, which is why restaurants take flies so seriously.
Exterior fly pressure and door-zone defense belong to quarterly coverage at $49 monthly. Targeted work, a drain program or hunting a carrion source, gets its own price by phone, and when the honest fix is sanitation, that advice is free.
