House flies are not deaf; they can detect sounds, but their hearing is not as advanced as that of many other animals. They primarily sense vibrations in the air through specialized structures called chordotonal organs. These organs help them respond to various environmental cues, including the sound of predators or potential mates. However, their hearing capabilities are limited compared to mammals.
