House flies get their name from being the most common fly
found around homes. Adult house flies can grow to one-quarter of an
inch long and usually live between 15 and 25 days.
Habits
They are only able to feed on liquids but have the ability to turn
many solid foods into a liquid for them to eat. House flies taste with
their feet, which are 10 million times more sensitive to sugar than
the human tongue.
Habitat
House flies tend to stay within 1-2 miles of where they were
born; however, they have been known to migrate up to 20 miles to find
food.
Threats
These insects have been known to carry over 100 different
kinds of disease-causing germs, which makes them very bad house
guests.
