Flies (various species)

Although there are thousands of species of flies, they are all recognised to have only one pair of wings. The adults are a mere nuisance, while the larvae stage causes the most damage. A wide variety of flies are recognised, such as; fruit flies, vinegar flies, leaf mining flies and house flies, to name but a few.

The adults of most species mop-up surface liquids, but some have piercing mouthparts that can be used for stinging or blood-sucking. The maggot-type larvae of flies inhabit various habitats of organic matter, from food to excrement and rotting vegetation. Due to this variation in habitats, they can transmit numerous diseases.
