Pest control for homes and businesses across metro Atlanta
Max Pest Solutions treats fly problems across metro Atlanta by finding what they are breeding in rather than spraying the adults. Persistent indoor flies almost always mean a breeding source nearby - a drain, a bin, a dead animal or damp waste.
Customized Pest Control Solutions
A wooded acre and a slab-foundation subdivision home need different work. In metro Atlanta we quote after walking the property rather than from a price list, so what gets applied follows what the inspection actually finds.

Most treatments are one visit plus a check. If anything is still active when we come back to your metro Atlanta property, we treat it again - that return visit is part of the job, not a second call-out.
Call Us NowDifferent flies mean different problems. House flies breed in bins and food waste. Drain flies – small, fuzzy, hovering near sinks – breed in the film inside drain pipes and cannot be resolved by cleaning the sink. Fruit flies breed in ripening produce and beer or wine residue. Cluster flies overwinter in wall voids and lofts, emerging on warm days.
The species tells you where the source is, and finding the source is the whole job. Adults live for weeks; a treatment that only kills adults is replaced by a new generation within days.
Fly treatment in metro Atlanta typically runs $150 to $350 for a standard visit. Cost depends almost entirely on locating and correcting the breeding source; where that means accessing a wall void or a drain line, the work takes longer.

FAQ
Flies breed in the material they feed on, so a persistent indoor population almost always means a breeding site nearby - a drain, a bin store, a dead rodent in a cavity, or organic build-up under equipment. Killing the adults without finding that site achieves nothing lasting.
Drain flies are small and moth-like and breed in the organic film inside drains and traps. Fruit flies are smaller and breed in fermenting material - fruit, spillage, mop buckets. They need different treatment, and the drain species in particular cannot be solved with a surface spray.
They reduce adults in the immediate area and do nothing about the breeding site producing them. In food premises they also have to be positioned carefully, because a zapper above a preparation surface creates its own contamination problem.
By finding and eliminating the breeding sites first - drains, floor junctions, bin areas and equipment voids - then treating and monitoring. The work is scheduled outside trading hours and documented, because fly activity is one of the first things an inspector notices.
Yes. Flies move between waste and food surfaces and transfer contamination directly. In a food business a visible fly problem is both a compliance issue and a reputational one.
Adults can be knocked down immediately, but lasting control follows the breeding site being removed, which is usually a matter of days rather than weeks once it has been found.
