Did you know that the fly larve can be used in medical therpy.



Did you know that:




Each female fly can lay approximately 500 eggs in several batches of about 75 to 150, eggs [1].




Did you know that the fly larve can be used in medical therpy.




Within a day, larvae (maggots) hatch from the eggs; they live and feed in (usually dead and decaying) organic material, such as garbage or faeces.




They are pale-whitish, 3-9 mm long, thinner at the mouth end, and have no legs.




They live at least one week. At the end of their third instar, the maggots crawl to a dry cool place and transform into pupae, colored reddish or brown and about 8 mm long. The adult flies then emerge from the pupae. (This whole cycle is known as complete metamorphosis.)




The adults live from two weeks to a month in the wild, or longer in benign laboratory conditions. After having emerged from the pupae, the flies cease to grow; small flies are not young flies, but are indeed the result of getting insufficient food during the larval stage.[2]

Some 36 hours after having emerged from the pupa, the female is receptive for mating.




Copulation takes between a few seconds to a couple minutes.[2] Normally the female mates only once, storing the sperm to use it repeatedly for laying several sets of eggs.




Males are territorial: they will defend a certain territory against other males and will attempt to mount any females that enter that territory.




Houseflies can take in only liquid foods. They spit out saliva on solid foods to predigest it, and then suck it back in. They also regurgitate partly digested matter and pass it again to the abdomen.




They are capable of carrying over 100 pathogens, such as typhoid, cholera, Salmonella, bacillary dysentery, tuberculosis, anthrax, ophthalmia, and parasitic worms.
