Why do I have a problem with flies?
You likely have a fly problem in your home or business because they found a way in through a small or large opening and because you have food and provide shelter. In some cases, such as fruit flies, they enter on infested produce. Flies, depending on their species, feed on decaying vegetation, meat, excrement, fresh fruits and vegetables, and fermenting liquids.
Do flies bite?
While some flies bite, the ones described above do not have a tendency to or cannot bite.
Are flies dangerous?
Even though flies do not bite, flies are considered dangerous. In the course of their travels (through excrement, sewers, decaying vegetation, etc.), they pick up and spread disease, human pathogens, and parasites. Dysentery, diarrhea, cholera, conjunctivitis, and tapeworms are just a few examples of those.
