Yes, houseflies eat honey. The insects in question include among their feeding preferences sugary and sweet foods. But it is a case of a fatal attraction since honey can be like quicksand for invertebrates.

Yes, flies like sugar. They land on it and vomit digestive fluids which dissolve the sugar. They then suck up the liquid with the sugar mixed in.
