Common housefly

Found breeding all over the world anywhere where rubbish or decaying organic matter is present. Their potential reproductive capacity is tremendous. An adult fly has a very short life span but as many as 10 to 12 generations may appear in just one summer. Houseflies are attracted to all food material but can only ingest liquids. They visit decaying matter including dung and carrion where they can pick up bacteria and viruses. If saliva is regurgitated onto food for human consumption, disease and viruses can be transmitted. All homes will be visited by flies during the summer months and care should be taken to never leave food material exposed.
