Not knowing too much about insects, I dó know that (some) flies are definitively carnivores (inspect any fresh roadkill and you'll see them buzzing around and also eating from the roadkill).

Other flies feed on plants/fruit or other organic materials - for example the wellknown fruit flies. I suppose they can be considered herbivores.

Whether some flies are omnivores (eating both plants/fruit and meat), I cannot tell you.

By the way: why is this question in the 'Baseball' category ?

Yes because flies eat plant sap, which comes from plants.

A dragonfly--believe it or not--is an omnivore. It usually chows down on things like bees, mosquitos, flies, and butterflies, grass, plants, leaves, herbs, and tree leaves.
