Flies are the best known of the house-infesting flies (photo at the top of the page). Flies generally are gray, with the thorax marked with broad dark stripes. There is often some yellow coloring along the sides that differentiates them from face flies.
HarmfulCause
These flies cause annoyance and discomfort, and can also be harmful to human and animal health. Their presence alone is often annoying to people, but the true effects they have on humanity go largely unseen. Some flies carry very deadly diseases and infest grain and meat in large numbers.
What WeRecommend
Practices that remove breeding areas are fundamental to the control of filth-breeding flies, such as house flies and blow flies. Remove or cover garbage regularly and clean spilled animal feed and manure. Proper management of a compost pile is important. Removal of other breeding areas, such as overripe fruit (fruit flies) or the gelatinous material down the drain (drain flies) is also fundamental to their control.
