Are you sure you want to know? They eat the dead flakes of skin that constitute dust, they eat the invisible mould from around your toilet, they eat your dogs faeces before they lay their eggs in it, THEN... they land on your dinner plate and eat your food! HOW they eat is another matter. They vomit up a nasty solvent-like phlegm onto their food, which dissolves it into a liquid. Then they suck up the liquid through their probosis, which is like a long straw. It is fascinating to watch, but also incredibly repulsive, especially when it happens to your dinner! Sorry. You asked!
