Keep Your Bin Store Clean and Fly-Free This Summer

The combination of heat and organic waste can cause bins to smell more during the summer. Warm weather accelerates decomposition, releasing foul odours and attracting flies in the bin. In addition to excess bin flies, this can lead to an increase in other pests, creating an unsanitary environment.

A smelly, fly-infested bin store can be a hygiene and infection risk, and may drive away customers, harming your business reputation.

Unpleasant odours travel easily, and visible flies around your premises can be off-putting to potential customers. Maintaining a clean and odour-free bin store is crucial for preserving your business’s image and ensuring customer satisfaction.

Regular cleaning and proper waste management are essential practices to maintain. Here are some practical steps:

1. Sweeping and Cleaning: Regularly sweep the area around the bins to remove food debris and other waste. Clean the bins and storage area thoroughly after waste collection to eliminate leftover rubbish.
2. Properly Sealed Bins: Seal waste bags securely with bag tie or by knotting before putting them into the bin. Ensure your bins have tightly fitting lids to prevent flies and other pests from accessing the waste. Consider using locks to secure the bins further.
3. Professional Cleaning Services: Invest in professional cleaning services, such as Rentokil Specialist Hygiene, which offers efficient cleaning and disinfection for bin stores. This can help eliminate unpleasant odours and ensure a hygienic environment.

Knowing how to get rid of flies around bins and neutralise odours often requires a multifaceted approach. Consider these additional measures:

• Fly Traps: Use fly traps, such as EcoCatch External Fly Control, to reduce the number of flies around your bin store.
  
• Regular Emptying: Empty bins frequently to prevent waste from accumulating and decomposing.
  
• Deodorising Solutions: Use deodorising products to neutralise odours in and around the bins.

By following these tips and maintaining regular cleaning routines, you can ensure a pleasant environment for both your business and customers.
