When does a fly look like its parent?
It is as an adult that a fly looks like its parents.
Specifically, flies go through a life cycle of complete metamorphosis. The metamorphosis is complete because it involves four stages (egg, larvae, pupa, adult). The fly looks different in each stage, as opposed to an insect which undergoes incomplete metamorphosis (three stages of egg, nymph, adult, in which the nymph is a miniature version of the adult).

How many calories are there in a house fly?
The housefly is not listed among the "edible" insects. But those that are, provide between 100 and 200 calories per 100 grams of insects.
An adult housefly weighs between 10 and 12 miligrams, so you'd have to eat some 10,000 of them to get your 100 grams and 200 calories - first assuming they would be edible at all. You need about 2,000 -2,500 calories per day, so insects - even thousands at a time - can never be more than a snack.

Maggots prefer to crawl on their food. Decaying matter is the source of nutrition for maggots and since they must expend energy to move they remain as close to or on the food source as possible. If adipose fluids have seeped into the ground they will appear to be crawling on plain dirt but actually are feeding there.

Where do gnats fruit flies etc come from when there is NO fruit around?
I think they must have we have some at home and I think they actually GROW from the fruit! I never thought they bit until yesterday when I found a series of clear bites all up my left arm and now it's itching like mad - I don't like fruit flies, they thrive in damp sugary environments and multiply by the dozen daily! I used some insect spray to get rid of them but found more alive - gat rid of all bad fruit and flower is my advice!
