Fly control is among the most common pest issues we treat in Downtown Brooklyn. High commuter foot traffic through Atlantic Terminal and the Fulton Street subway corridor sustains rodent pressure that migrates from transit infrastructure into adjacent building basements and ground-floor businesses.
Fly control in Downtown Brooklyn: what to know
Downtown Brooklyn is the borough's commercial and transit hub — Fulton Street Mall, Atlantic Terminal and the Barclays Center area concentrate food retail, transit infrastructure and large pedestrian volumes that produce significant food-waste pressure feeding some of Brooklyn's densest rat populations.
The mix of older commercial buildings converted to residential use and new high-rise towers around Flatbush and DeKalb Avenues means both legacy pest access routes through old building infrastructure and modern elevator-borne cockroach and bed bug spread in the taller residential towers.

Signs you need fly control
- Small flies hovering around drains, sinks, or fruit
- Flies concentrated near a specific drain or piece of equipment
- A recurring fly problem in a kitchen or food-prep area
How we treat fly control in Downtown Brooklyn
Flies are a sanitation and reputation problem, especially for restaurants and food service. Fruit flies and drain flies breed in the organic film inside drains, under equipment and in damp build-up — so killing the adults does nothing if the breeding source remains.
We identify the species and trace the breeding source, eliminate it, and treat to knock down the adult population, with ongoing options for food-service clients where fly pressure is constant.
