Houseflies and Bacteria | Insect Control Risks | Insect Control Devices | Professional Protection P+L | Comark – Hand Dryers. Hygiene, Heating and Cooling

Insects such as flies and mosquitoes often stay on dirty and contaminated surfaces, where they carry various disease-causing pathogens on their bodies. Due to their high mobility, they easily contaminate food and food preparation areas, transferring pathogens into the food chain.

This represents a serious risk for restaurants, hotels, cafés, bakeries, and other hospitality establishments, where hygiene, food safety, and compliance with HACCP standards are of critical importance. Therefore, professional insect control, using insect control devices and UV insect lamps, is essential to prevent the spread of disease.

E Coli

Research has shown that insects are one of the biggest carriers

Salmonella

The most common cause of food poisoning, it can survive in the bloodstream of an ordinary housefly.

Compylobocter

The bacterium has been isolated in many insect species

Klebsiella

A cause of various urinary and respiratory infections, commonly found in the gut of flies

Streptococcus

Associated with numerous skin and intestinal diseases

Meningitis

This deadly disease has been isolated from the gut of the common housefly

A common housefly can carry up to 6,000,000 bacteria on its legs, making it one of the most frequent carriers of infectious microorganisms. During its short life cycle, a single fly can lay more than 1,000 eggs in just two weeks, allowing for extremely rapid reproduction.

Egg laying and development take place at landfills, waste sites, households, manure, and other unhygienic environments, from where insects can easily spread into hospitality facilities such as restaurants and hotels. For this reason, professional insect control, through the use of insect control devices and UV insect lamps, is essential for maintaining hygiene, food safety, and compliance with HACCP standards.
