Fly (General term for small Dipterans)

Commonly found in a wide range of environments including residential homes, near organic waste, and vegetation.

Depending on species, they feed on decaying organic matter, nectar, or liquids found in human environments.

Often active during the day, attracted to light, food odors, and moisture. They undergo complete metamorphosis (egg, larva, pupa, adult).

Risks include the potential spread of pathogens and contamination of surfaces. Benefits include their role as decomposers and a food source for other animals.
