Shoo fly
Musca domestica, the housefly, is a well known cosmopolitan pest responsible for transporting disease carrying organisms and damaging surfaces. When resting, adults regurgitate a liquid that results in spots on the surface combined with other darker spots, both of which can be difficult to remove without damaging the paint surface. The flies are inactive at night and tend to congregate on ceiling areas. 

Resene has found a way to resolve the unwanted fly spot nuisance through a novel approach – that is, create a surface that flies don’t like landing on and you’ll minimise the appearance of fly spots.

This novel concept has been formulated into Resene SpaceCote Flat Fly Deterrent, designed to discourage flies from landing on areas painted with this product and minimising the appearance of fly spots and keeping the paint finish looking its best for longer. Extensive testing by an accredited laboratory has shown significant reductions in fly spots compared to standard paint systems.

Resene SpaceCote Flat Fly Deterrent combines all the benefits and performance of Resene SpaceCote with the added bonus of fly deterrent. If fly spots are getting on your nerves, do your nerves a favour and paint on some Resene SpaceCote Flat Fly Deterrent.

Available exclusively from Resene in white and over 800 colours off white. See Data Sheet D314 for information on Resene SpaceCote Flat.
