Flies

[loobers25]

Just wondering what flies can actually cause flystrike? Is it any fly? We have made fly screens for the windows to be open but was just curious

I am not really sure but was told ages ago that it is only green bottles, as blue bottles lay their eggs on dead flesh. :?

If It is only blue or green bottles I have murdered thousands of flies over the years? Opps

The big ones that buzz. Yes blue bottles, but if you hear a buzz, get it. They make me shudder.

I thought it was blue bottles. The smaller pesky flies don't seem to be the culprits. Blue bottles (and green bottles) lay their eggs for maggots and so in my opinion, it's blue bottles. I've worked myself up into a raging sweat tonight swatting a dozen or so of the blighters who came unwelcome into the kitchen. I'm on a personal mission against blue bottles I'm afraid.
