When you think of the most dangerous pests, the housefly probably isn't one of the first that
comes to mind. Instead, you probably think of a pest that stings, like a wasp or bee.
It is true that flies rarely bite or sting, but their danger lies in the fact that they often land on
dead animals, rotten food, manure and trash. Because they frequent those places, they pick up and
spread diseases that are harmful to humans.
You get typhoid fever when you eat or drink Salmonella typhi bacteria in contaminated food.
Cholera is an intestinal infection, and you get it when you ingest bacteria called Vibrio cholera.
Dysentery is one of the more common diseases you might catch from the bacteria spread by
a houselly
It gets worse - houseflies can also carry and spread leprosy and anthrax. They even transmit
the eggs of parasitic worms!
Fortunately, there are several methods you can use to keep houseflies away. So you and your
loved ones can avoid catching any of the diseases transmitted by the tiny pests.
A yard full of animal waste, grass clippings, and other debris will keep you from getting rid of
your housefly problem. So, take the time to keep your yards clean. You should cut the lawns.
Flies love to hang out around rotting food, so make sure all trash cans are sealed tightly
Make sure all of your food is covered, and if you have fresh produce, keep it in a bag or sealed
container. Also avoid leaving dirty dishes in your sink. The scent of food leftovers could easily
attract houseflies
