Insects buzzing indoors can quickly turn a peaceful home into a noisy place. Among these pests, flies are some of the most bothersome.
Flies, including house flies, fruit flies, drain flies, and cluster flies, carry many diseases and pose threats to human health.
According to the National Library of Medicine, house flies can transmit over 100 harmful diseases.
To safeguard your family’s health, it’s essential to address fly infestations safely and naturally.
While swatting flies may offer a temporary solution, more effective methods are recommended by experts.
Where Do Flies Come From?
Flies (Diptera) have over 120,000 species worldwide. House flies are about 1/8-1/4 inch long, gray with four black stripes on their thorax, hairy bodies, a pair of wings, and compound red eyes.
Roberto M. Pereira, Ph.D., from the University of Florida, explains that flies typically enter homes through torn window screens and open doors, and they breed in mulch piles or garbage cans near entry points.
Houseflies reproduce rapidly, laying between 75 and 150 eggs at once, and can spread up to 20 miles from their hatching site.
