As much as flies can be a menace to society, they are a key part of our ecosystem.
Here are some interesting facts about flies. The last one is most likely the main reason why we all don't like flies around our homes, because they are such big germ spreaders.
The below facts are from Pest World For Kids.
- There are more than 120,000 species of flies worldwide. About 18,000 are found in North America. The most common species are houseflies, fruit flies, and horseflies.
- Most flies live an average of 21 days and take on various shapes throughout their short lives.
- A female housefly can lay up to 600 eggs in her short lifetime.
- Flies eat pretty much anything, from fruit to animal fecal matter (as in poop — ew!).
