What insect has wings that look like flags?
With limited description provided the answer is limited. I would say that it is a dragon fly. Insect order: Odonata (I think). Most people recognize butterflys but not all people in large cities have seen dragon flys.
The housefly has two halters that allow it to fly. If they are both removed, they are not able to fly at all. Their wings provide enough power for them to make complicated flight movements.
Green flies tend to land on dog feces so if there is a dog in the house this is where they will come from. These types of flies are commonly found on farms.
What is the life cycle of a maggot?
You DO understand that a maggot is a fly larva and this is just one stage of a fly's life and that flies don't remain maggots forever, don't you? You may want to rethink your question.
What are the little black spots left behind by flies?
Just encountered this nasty looking fly for the first time. It's the Xenox tigrinus, tiger bee fly. So named because it feeds on carpenter bees (which tunnel into wood) and most likely means you should check the wood around where they are being spotted. I know I will be doing some extermination, plugging and painting.

- Only our imagination is the limit. Believe it!
To find maggots go to a beach. Look mainly in the tide area (where the tide regulary ends when it comes in). dig deep into the sand and maggots will appear. Maggots normally fall into the sea and go under the sand when the tide comes in.
Yes, bot flies do live in Georgia. In fact, there have been cases where creatures like rabbits have been found with bot fly larvae under their skin!
How do houseflies know when you are about to swat them?
Flies return when they are swatted because of the reason they were being pests in the first place. A fly is always looking for food. If the food source was near where they were swatted, they will return for the food.
Yes. It has a natural oil in it that deters fleas, like mint.

In fruit flies gray body color is dominant over black body color?
The statement, "In fruit flies, gray body color is dominant over black body color" is true. The allele for gray body color is dominant.
It is not an insect but an internal parasite. The tapeworm's eggs look like little grains of rice when passed in the feces of your dog or cat. There are medications out there to de-worm your pet with for tapeworms. You really should take a sample of your pet's feces into your Veterinarian and have it examined to see if there are more internal parasites in your pet, such as roundworms, hookworms or whipworms.
Pyrethrin insecticide, pyrethrin spray, pyrethrin fogging products, pyrethrin foggers.
Enviornment-Safe Pyrethrum Pyrethrum is a completely organic, environment-safe insecticide derived from 100% African Chrysanthemum flowers. Pyrethrum powder is toxic to ants, roaches, silverfish, bed bugs, fleas, wasps, spiders, crickets, mosquitoes, and just about every other category of unwanted house or garden pest. Because it decomposes rapidly in the environment, pyrethrum has been approved for a wide range of indoor and outdoor uses, including homes, restaurants, broad-scale spraying operations, and organic farms.
In addition to being environment friendly, pyrethrum also has the following unique properties: * Quick Action -Pyrethrum poisons insects upon contact, attacking the central nervous system and resulting in faster knockdown and kill. * Low Toxicity - Pyrethrum is one of the least toxic insecticides available, boasting a long history of proven safety towards humans and animals. * Repellent - When not present in fatal amounts, pyrethrum acts as a repellent to protect food establishments, grain storage, and crops from insect pests. * Flushing Agent- Pyrethrum agitates insects in their hiding places, flushing them out and forcing them to be exposed to the insecticide. * Multi-purpose - Pyrethrum consists of a group of compounds rather than a single compound, resulting in a wider scope of activity against pests than other insecticides. It can be used against almost any pest in the house or garden. No Insect Immunity - Insect resistance is not a problem because of the complexity of the molecule that pyrethrum is composed of.

What type of symmetry does a horsefly have?
Grasshoppers are arthropods, and all arthropods have bilateral symmetry. This means they have symmetry across one plane (known as the sagittal plane, and directly down the centre of their body), which means one side of their body approximately mirrors the other side.
