Combat flies and fruit flies without chemicals

St Gallen, 28th of July 2022. They are annoying, they leave a mess and they infest food: we're talking about small flying insects like flies and fruit flies. While the former mainly contaminate window panes and can rob us of our sleep, the latter like to infest our delicious fruit. Even though fruit flies do not pose a threat to our health, it is still unpleasant when countless of them whizz around and leave larvae on our food. The chemical destruction of insects is not a healthy solution, especially in the realm of food, but what other methods are there to get rid of these pests? SWISSINNO offers ecological, non-toxic, and efficient solutions. Its Fruit Fly Trap as well as its Outdoor Fly Trap and Window Trap successfully combat flying troublemakers without the need for any toxic chemicals.

In May, June, and July, insects' larvae develop rapidly in warm weather. In summer, especially, the insect load in apartments, houses, shops, and restaurants is thus high. Flies are almost everywhere at this time, and their buzzing is annoying, especially indoors. It's not only the noise though that can become a nuisance. The insects can also transmit germs, which is why they are particularly unwelcome guests in the kitchen. The same applies to fruit flies, who will quickly cause cut fruit to spoil.

If you want to stop fruit flies, you could use chemical solutions. Those insecticides can kill mosquitoes, fruit flies, and flies, but, once applied, remain on the sprayed materials or in the air. When children play in the home, they then quickly come in contact with the poisoned surfaces, and then put their infected hands in their mouths. Although this is not acutely life-threatening, parents want to avoid it for obvious reasons. It is the same with pets. Their bodies can be seriously attacked by these poisons. Furthermore, insecticides do not distinguish between beneficial organisms, such as bees, and pests, like fruit flies; they simply kill everything. Effective, targeted, and ecological pest control is therefore impossible with chemicals. Last but not least, it is not permitted to use poison in some sensitive areas, such as kitchens and restaurants. And even when it is allowed, no guest will be happy to see insecticides being sprayed generously around where their food is being prepared.

Ecological fly traps solve the problem without using chemicals. This even works outdoors, as the SWISSINNO Outdoor Fly Trap proves. This innovative system is based on an attractant that selectively attracts only flies. These are then caught in the trap. This allows outdoor areas in the catering industry, playgrounds, or areas with rubbish to be effectively freed from flies. For sustainable use, it is important that the attractant does not attract bees. This way, there is no danger to these beneficial organisms, who must be protected.

There are also ecological solutions for annoying buzzing insects inside the house. The Window Fly Trap is particularly sophisticated. It exploits the phenomenon that insects are attracted to the light. The buzzing sound of a fly flying over a window pane is probably familiar to everyone – as are the dirty prints it leaves behind. The SWISSINNO Window Fly Trap is simply installed in the corners of the windows. The traps have sticky surfaces on their inside, to which the insects adhere. This saves chasing after flies with the fly swatter, and is, therefore, more practical and more hygienic. An attractant is again used in the Fruit Fly Trap, and is placed in a specially developed trap. The flies enter the trap, but they can’t get out again. Another advantage: replacement baits are available for the Fruit Fly Trap, which means it can be reused as desired.
