The fly is an obnoxious insect, and in the insect world, it is really notorious. That said, I'm interested in it, so please listen to me and introduce it!
Flies, which belong to the insect class Diptera, have many species, including cattle flies, houseflies, numb flies, parasitic flies and so on. As for the residence, the toilets, the dung piles, the pigsty, the restaurant, etc., everywhere they can fly in is their home.
Flies, it is harmful to humans a lot. The first is the spread of disease. They breed in garbage and feces, travel back and forth on dirt and dirt, and carry a large number of germs. According to the survey, the epidermis of a single housefly carries 6 million toxic microorganisms, and the intestines are as many as 28 million. There will be a large number of germs on the food they have stung, and people who eat bacterial food will get dysentery, hepatitis B and other diseases. Second, they reproduce in large numbers, which seriously affects environmental health. In just five months from April to August, 1911 billion of their "descendants" would survive, and if these flies were spread on the earth's surface, they would be 14 meters thick, which is a disgusting and terrifying thing. Especially in the summer, flies disrupt our normal study and life, blowing irritating "buzzing" horns, constantly invading us, and becoming "bombers" without bombs.
Because of this, people hate flies. But since I learned about the relationship between flies and people, my attitude has changed.
From the perspective of biomimicry research, flies are paired
The contribution of famous human beings is great. First, the head of the fly
There are two compound eyes, consisting of thousands of small eyes arranged on a curved surface, each of which is self-contained and can be imaged individually. The "fly-eye camera" that can take thousands of pictures at a time is made of compound eye structure. Second, the structure of its feet is also very special, there is a curved claw at the end, there is a suction cup in the palm, can secrete mucus, so it can walk freely on the smooth glass, if humans can make "fly foot shoes", climbing the mountain is not as easy as a palm? Third, flies have a particularly sensitive sense of smell, are particularly sensitive to the taste of sugar, and can distinguish the nature of sugar, thus deciding on trade-offs. If humans can make "fly taste receptors", diabetes can be predicted, and early treatment can be of great help to medicine. Fourth, the speed at which flies reproduce is not all bad, and because of this, people hate flies. But since I learned about the relationship between flies and people, my attitude has changed.

Fourth, the fast reproduction rate of flies is not all bad If they use their maggots as chicken and duck feed, the economic benefits are very high. Another point is that flies are only in the place where bacteria gather, they never get sick, there must be antibacterial substances in their bodies, if this substance can be extracted from the flies and used, then humans do not have to worry about the infection of germs.
In short, the scientific research value of flies is great, but human beings have not studied them in depth, and they can be fully developed and utilized.
Knowing this, did you start to have a favorite fly too?
