Description

Some females still overwinter in heated rooms, these females have mated before and keep the male sperm inside so they can fertilize the eggs with them in the spring. The housefly is an annoying animal, although it is not dangerous in itself, but it infects everything, including the excrement of patients, and then spreads disease germs around. The housefly reproduces very quickly, the female lays fifteen times in the period from May to September or until October, each time about 60 to 70 eggs. With the litter, he plants them in garbage and other waste, often in manure, preferably in horse manure. The larvae hatch from the eggs after only 24 hours, grow quickly and hatch. The new genus shows up after only 10 to 14 days.
