How Weather Affects Flies

A hot, humid environment with daytime temperatures in the 80s brings peak housefly activity. In fact, the warmer seasons may even encourage houseflies to bred faster. The female may lay five or six groups of about 100 eggs. Hotter temperatures cause the eggs to hatch quicker. Like many insects, flies enter a state called diapause in the cooler months. This is especially true for house fly species, which likes to enter homes and find a secluded place to escape the chill. Diapause isn’t exactly hibernation, but the development and appetite of the fly will slow down dramatically during this time.

Flies such as the common houseflies, horseflies, and the greenbottle fly are not only nuisance pests, but they are also responsible for transmitting diseases and contaminating food. For instance, flies can contaminate food and transferring hundreds of pathogens, including malaria, salmonella and tuberculosis. Food contamination is one of the main reasons that fly pest control is so important.

The Dangers of Flies

Flies come in regular contact with people, pets and frequently-touched surfaces like counter-tops and tables. A female fly can lay 500 offspring in a season. These offspring hatch first into larvae (usually called maggots), and then mature into adult flies which then breed again, repeating the cycle.

Flies also spread disease, primarily by vomiting on food. The World Health Organization notes that they are carriers of all sorts of pathogens, including those affecting the gastrointestinal tract, skin, eyes, and other organs. Flies don’t leave bites, but they spread disease in two ways:

1. Flies like garbage, and perspiration. When they crawl around looking for food, they can pick up germs and disease-causing organisms on their bodies and on the hairs that cover their body’s surface area. When they land on another surface, they carry those pathogens along with them, contaminating those objects (including food items and your own skin) along the way.

2. Because their feeding habits put them in contact with harmful germs, an adult fly can pick up a lot of bacteria and other harmful pathogens while eating. These germs can stay alive inside the fly for several days, which means flies can transmit diseases long after they’ve feasted on the initial source. Common house flies also carry many types of bacteria that can cause intestinal symptoms like diarrhea, upset stomach, and nausea.
