Solutions that work for flies, mosquitos and insects in your barn.

Welcome to FlyFreeBarns.com! Our mission is to eradicate flies and other annoying insects from your barn.

Flies, in addition to being annoying, create some serious problems for the horse owner:

  • Contamination: Flies are transmitters of disease primarily because they feed on human and animal waste. The dangerous bacteria present in waste stick to the mouth, footpads and hairs of flies and may be deposited on feed intended for animal consumption. Fly feces, which contain disease-bearing organisms, can also contaminate food. Flies defecate every four to five minutes. And since flies have no teeth and must take their nourishment in liquid form, they spit on solid food and let it dissolve before consuming it. Fly spittle, or vomitus, is swarming with bacteria and contaminates anything it touches. A fly can infect food by merely landing on it.
  • West Nile Virus: (WNV) is on the increase in the US. This is a potentially serious illness that flares up in the summer and continues into the fall. Most often, WNV is spread by the bite of an infected mosquito. Mosquitoes are WNV carriers that become infected when they feed on infected birds. Infected mosquitoes can then spread WNV to humans and other animals when they bite.
  • Infection: Flies congregate around eyes, cuts and skin injuries. They can cause serious infections and significantly increase healing time.
  • Stamping: Flies can contribute to concussion on your horse's joints and even hoof damage, as horses "stamp" to shake off the flies.

We can help with the installation and maintenance of a cost-effective automatic insect control system. Your barn will be free from flies in no time, you'll save money on expensive bottled fly sprays and your horses will thank you!

We operate in the Northern Virginia area, generally within a 50 mile radius of Purcellville.
