Fly control in Greenpoint: what to know
Greenpoint's pre-war brick row houses and multi-family walk-up buildings along Manhattan Avenue and Driggs Street have the shared walls, basement utilities and original plumbing where cockroaches and mice travel freely between the neighbourhood's densely packed units.
The industrial waterfront along Newtown Creek — historically a heavy-industry zone with legacy contamination — sustains large rodent populations that feed into the residential blocks to the west; the creek infrastructure provides rodent travel routes that are difficult to intercept without systematic building-level treatment.

How we treat fly control in Greenpoint
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.
