Flies

Yes, there are sand flies in South Carolina. They are especially a nuisance along the coast. The females require a blood meal so the eggs can mature (males do not bite). Females lay eggs in mud, sand, and debris around the edges of ponds, springs, lakes, creeks, and in tree holes or on slime-covered bark.

Turning over is the cockroaches natural "death bed". When they do that, they're on the way out.

I am assuming you mean 'Why are fruit flys used in experiments and not humans?' in which case the answer is there are so many fruit flies and they are not really neccicary to us humans. Also if something goes wrong, humans could die or get mentally ill. Fruit flys just croak over and aren't missed. Correct me if I am wrong please.

Flies lay their eggs and they hatch as maggots

Fruit flies come from outside. They are small enough to pass through screens. They do not spontaneously generate from over ripe/rotting fruit.

No, the fly's speed is relative to the space it is in, the air it is flying in is moving with the car, but static inside. It would, however, be different if the windows were open. The same would apply to environments like inside of an airplane or a train. Also, the earth travels trough space at over 17,000 kilometers per hour, when you are walking down the street, you aren't walking that fast.

I have never heard of such a case. By their nature maggots ( the larval form of various blow flies) are destructive of dead tissue rather than a preservative. Indeed curers and preservers of meat go to great lengths to avoid infestation by maggots in such products as air dried hams by using mesh fly screens and protective fabric bags for the drying hams.

Interestingly maggots have been used and are still used to remove dead tissue from wounds in humans. The maggots only eat dead tissue leaving the living tissue intact. While superficially an unattractive process it does reduce the need for continual surgical intervention to remove the dead tissue.

A horsefly could fly as high as the sky, but I'd just shoot it down and it'll die. Now you don't need to ask how high it could fly if it could fly high, now please don't be upset and please don't cry. Tell your sister that I said hi.

A space invader

HAHAHA that's funny?

Process of elimination. First get some household bleach and put it into a spray bottle. Take this and spray about 5 squirts in every sink in the house. Be sure to spray the overflow openings in the bathroom sinks. Do the same in the overflow openings in the tubs. Place a banana peel on an open space and get rid of the flyers with either a vacuum cleaner or use a soap mixture in a spray bottle to kill the ones in flight. Hope this helps! When my husband and I had drain flies in our apartment we tried pouring every chemical we could think of into the drains. Bleach, tub & tile cleaner, CLR....everything. When none of that helped we had to get our landlord and a plumber involved. The plumber explained to us that drain flies lay their eggs in the film surrounding the inside of the pipes and water/liquid will not destroy them until they hatch so often when you get rid of them for a few days or so they come right back. We had to get a crack in the pipe repaired and professionally cleaned before we finally got rid of the problem. Good luck!

Drosophila(fruit flies) can produce plenty of offspring and have specific traits, such as eye color and body color/shape. They are easy to observe and therefore easily traced throughout the following generations.

A fruit fly, also known as Drosophila Melanogaster, has two compound eyes that are each made up of 800 unit eyes. These unit eyes are called ommatidia. Each ommatidium (sing.) contains eight photoreceptors labeled R1-R8.

Amber is solidified tree sap. Thousands of years ago, the fly landed on a patch of sticky tree sap, and became stuck, unable to move. The sap continued to flow, encasing it completely, preserving it from decay. The sap solidified into amber, the fly still inside.

Chickens swallow differently than we do. We close our mouths and let our throats do the rest. Chickens open and close their mouths rapidly while tilting their heads up, they need gravity to do the rest.

No, flies are not good for compost. The insects in question indicate that something is awry in terms of the composting ingredients or process and that the shortcoming encourages them to lay eggs to produce more flies.

Yes, flies have hearts, at least nine of them.

The best answer is as far as they have to. Migrating ducks fly thouands of miles, while domestic breeds rarely fly at all.

A flywheel is made basically like a brake rotor, and the clutch disc is made like brake pads. The spinning flywheel is pressed against the clutch disc, which is made of hard steel--the idea being to get the clutch side of the trans to spin.

The mortal enemy of The Fly is typically considered to be Spider-Man, who is known for his agility and speed in fighting against villains, including those with insect-like abilities.

A puddle jumper (float plane)??? A UFO. (although, they technically hover when they're off)??? There is a particular type of boat one of which is called the flying posidon, which has wings under the water which makes the boat effectively 'fly' accross the water, when the boat is not in motion it floats! A duck Yes, but if she weighs the same as a duck, then she will float and is therefore made of wood and by extention will burn and so must be a witch. BURN HER!! :) A pilot who has a swimming pool in his back yard

There are many types of fly traps out in the market these days. Traps are preferred over chemicals in this environment. The more traps the lesser flies seen.

Kites flying over a house at night in Japan are said to bring good luck and ward off evil spirits. This belief is rooted in Japanese folklore where kites are believed to protect homes and bring blessings to the residents.
