The house fly (Musca domestica) is a food-seeking pest that does not rest.

In spills of flour, it will readily infest.

Yet a solution is at hand: LED ILTs across the land.

LED glue boards catch’em, that is the knack. Assess the problem, and then fight back.

Know their location and their trends, then you know where to defend.

It’s never something to dismiss: High numbers mean something is amiss.

Stop house flies and protect the public feast.

Make the facility a no-fly beast!
