Source-Based Fly Programs for Restaurants & Food Service
Drain, fruit, phorid, and house fly elimination built on biofilm breakdown and source removal — not aerosol knockdown that returns every week.
- Drain biofilm treatment
- Floor-sink source inspection
- Phorid fly diagnostics
- Fruit fly source tracing
- Exterior house fly programs
- Low-odor, kitchen-safe materials
Commercial fly control that solves the source, not just the swarm
Fly problems in Indianapolis commercial kitchens, bars, and food-processing facilities almost never come from outdoors. They come from drains, neglected floor sinks, damp mop closets, dumpster pads, organic buildup under equipment, and occasionally from phorid flies breeding in broken sewer lines under the slab. An aerosol knockdown on adult flies makes the room look better for a shift, then the larvae hatch in the biofilm below and the swarm is back by the next weekend. Real fly control is source control, and source control starts with diagnostics.
Our technicians identify the species first, because drain flies, fruit flies, phorid flies, and house flies each have different breeding substrates and each demand different treatment. We inspect drains with scopes where needed, check floor-sink condition, look under equipment for organic buildup, and investigate slab penetrations for phorid fly evidence. Treatment combines biological drain cleaners that digest biofilm, targeted residual and non-residual materials, mechanical devices where appropriate, and a sanitation plan for your team. Every program is documented for health inspections and scheduled around operating hours.

We service every commercial facility in the Indy metro.
If you run a commercial building in central Indiana that needs pest managed — we can help. Schools, daycares, gyms, churches, banks, self-storage, event venues, and more.
We had drain flies bad enough that guests were mentioning them in reviews. Two companies came out, sprayed, and charged us for swarms that came back in five days. ProTech spent the first visit identifying species and finding the actual sources — two floor sinks nobody had cleaned properly in years and a cracked grease line under the dish pit. They treated with biological drain cleaner, coached the team on nightly drain care, and scheduled bi-weekly service. Flies were visibly gone within three weeks. Review complaints stopped entirely.
Phorid fly diagnosis under our slab saved us from a much worse sanitation write-up later.
Fruit flies in the bar area finally gone after three vendors could not fix it.

Our 4-step commercial process.
Structured, documented, and built around the compliance standards your facility faces.
Species diagnosis
A technician identifies the species, inspects drains and floor sinks, checks under equipment for organic buildup, and investigates slab penetrations where phorid fly activity is suspected.
Source treatment
Biological drain cleaners digest biofilm, targeted materials address adult populations, and sanitation recommendations go to your team in writing the same day as the inspection.
Recurring cadence
Bi-weekly or monthly visits maintain drain treatment, inspect for new sources, and adjust protocols as operations change. Staff coaching keeps nightly drain care consistent.
Verification
We track adult fly activity visit over visit. When counts stay at zero through a full seasonal cycle, we right-size the program to a maintenance cadence that protects against reintroduction.
Every program delivers this baseline.
Specialty services and add-ons layer on based on facility type. This is the foundation.
Drain, fruit, phorid, and house flies all require different treatment — identification is the first step every visit.
Visual scope inspection of drains where biofilm, cracks, or sub-slab issues are suspected.
Enzyme and microbial drain cleaners that digest biofilm rather than just flushing it temporarily.
Inspection and treatment of neglected floor sinks, a top overlooked fly-breeding site in commercial kitchens.
Investigation of slab cracks, broken sewer lines, and sub-floor voids when phorid flies are confirmed.
LED fly light traps placed out of sight of customers for monitoring and ongoing capture where appropriate.
Practical nightly drain and equipment-base routines for your kitchen and bar team, in writing.
Written service reports, SDS, and trend logs aligned with health-inspection and third-party food-safety expectations.
If fly activity spikes between scheduled visits, we return at no additional charge.

ProTech vs. typical national pest control.
Most buyers hire a national chain because the brand is familiar — then deal with rotating technicians, sub-contractors, and call centers. Here's how ProTech is structurally different.
No forced contracts. Free inspection. Between-visit response included.
