Flies consume a variety of organic materials, ranging from excrement to sweet and other food sources. Typically measuring between 7 to 14 mm in length, these insects thrive in dry environments, with warm temperatures fostering their reproductive processes. The reproduction cycle involves the laying of approximately 2,000 eggs, primarily in locations such as manure, faeces, compost heaps, and rubbish tips for Musca domestica species. Alternatively, the Calliphora vicina species may deposit eggs on protein-rich substances like meat. These eggs progress into white maggots, which can reach lengths of up to 12 mm. The unappetizing movement of flies between spoiled meat, excrement, and various food items not only raises concerns about their hygiene but also positions them as carriers of germs, posing a significant risk of food contamination. Consequently, flies have the potential to transmit pathogens responsible for infectious diseases, including but not limited to cholera, dysentery, typhoid fever, salmonellosis, hepatitis, and poliomyelitis.
