A Tse Tse fly will live generally from One to Three months.
The tsetse fly is a large biting insect native to Africa, and it is dangerous because it has been identified as a disease vector. The fly bites victims to drink blood, and can infect that victim. A bitten individual may get sleeping sickness. Nagana, a disease affecting cattle, can be passed on to these herd animals. A link can be found below.
The tsetse fly carries the parasite Trypanosoma brucei, which causes African trypanosomiasis, also known as sleeping sickness in humans. This disease is often fatal if left untreated and affects the central nervous system.
a tsetse fly starts out as an egg and it stays with its mother. the blood that the mother steals helps the baby grow. then it will hatch and look a maggot. when she can carry it no longer, she releases it in the soil and the tsetse fly will grow up there.
