This year's winter doesn't seem to have the taste of winter, and in the warm afternoon sun, a fly flew to my desk...
There is a saying in southern Fujian called "dogs and ants eat honey, and butterflies eat stinky faces" to describe each of them as good. Flies, a very annoying insect, fish in the vegetable market, meat stalls, and kitchen gutters in the house are often places where flies are densely packed, and in addition to hanging "sticky fly stickers", you can also use flies to beat flies. However, the vendors cannot use flies to pat the flies on the fish and meat, and there is nowhere to hang "sticky fly stickers", so they can only hang a few strips of cloth under the small fan, and they are annoyed to drive away the flies that come.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > a trick to catch flies with empty hands</h1>
When I was a child, there were also many flies in the kitchen in the country, especially on the stove. Grandmother did not use flies to shoot flies, but when she saw the five fingers of her right palm slightly closed, she waved her hand across the stove and caught a large handful of flies. Then throw it on the ground or into the hearth, and all the flies will die on the ground or burned to death in the charcoal fire.
In fact, the old grandmother's fly-catching skill is based on science. Flies, dipteran insectoids, have a wide field of view of nearly 360 degrees, combined with their fairly progressive escape response capabilities, to ensure their survival.
At the California Institute of Technology in the United States, there is a Professor Dickenson known as "Dr. Fly", who analyzed through high-speed video footage and found that when the fruit fly anticipates the threat, it will immediately calculate the direction and angle of the danger, and then adjust the posture, ready to flee in the opposite direction at any time. And this set of critical response techniques, the time before and after only 0.1 seconds. However, if they attack from different directions at the same time, the fruit flies will be confused and do not know which direction to fly away.
The same is true of the fly's imminent response, the fly shoots on the hole, reduces the air resistance, increases the speed of the shoot, so that the air flow generated when shooting is minimized, so that the fly does not feel the danger of being attacked. But when the flies saw the beat coming down from above, they flew diagonally to both sides. The wave of the hand on the stove is tantamount to chasing a swarm of flies that are flying in the opposite direction, and the effect is better than shooting with flies.
Flies, belonging to the order Diptera, can only see a pair of forewings of flies because their hindwings have degenerated into balance bars to assist flight. Flies generally breed in residential areas, are active during the day, and rest on the corners of the house or on the ceiling at night, in addition to flying and buzzing with their wings, they can also walk on walls or any smooth vertical plane, or hang upside down on the ceiling to walk "great magic".
This is because of the black technology on the body structure of the fly, its 6 feet on the left and right sides form 2 stable triangles to support the balance of the body, the end of each foot has a pair of hook claws can easily clamp the object without letting itself fall off, at the same time, there is a claw pad on the foot with glands, which can secrete liquid juice, through the surface tension of the liquid, so that the fly's feet are attached to any plane.
When you see a fly stopping to rub its hands, it is actually bathing itself very seriously, and the legs of the fly have a nose-like function, they fly everywhere, looking around for food, first tasting the taste of various foods with their feet, and then starting, eating non-stop, "untiing" anytime and anywhere. It has fine hairs all over its body and a lot of bacteria on its feet, and when they fly to crawl around on dirt, there are a lot of bacteria stuck on their feet, and when they fall on our food and start to take a bath, naturally, the spread of bacteria is completed.
Life history of flies: eggs, maggots, pupae, adults
Flies are not useless, the larvae of the fly are called maggots, as the saying goes, "maggots swim ———— where they stink and drill where they go", and maggots can be seen in dung pits or decomposing animal carcasses. Mature fly maggots crawl to a dry and cool place to pupate, at which point the parasitic bees can take the opportunity to lay eggs in the pupae, and the larvae of the parasitic bees will eat the maggots. After the pupae that survived the killing were feathered, the female flies matured sexually after about 36 hours. After mating only once, the eggs are finally laid, and the female stores the sperm and uses them several times (which is one of the reasons why there are so many flies). Male flies have their own territory and are not allowed to be invaded by other males, but they are also ready to "marry" any female flies that enter the country. After understanding the growth rules of flies, forensic doctors will use the characteristics of maggots under different conditions, such as age and age, as a reference index for inferring the death characteristics and death period of corpses.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > ecological record of flies in ancient texts</h1>
The oldest dictionary in China, "Erya", < the interpretation of insects. The fifteenth > monograph on insects (Note: The "insect" class defined in the ancient texts actually includes the zoological "reptiles" and "arthropods", the latter of which also contains "non-insects". In the Erya, it is mentioned: "Strong and ugly." Fly ugly fan. "Words such as qiang, fly, etc. are insect names, and the descriptions in "Erya" describe the life habits of flies." Strong ugly", refers to the fly with its feet to rub itself (Note: "strong", also refers to the rice mid-beetle worm). When observing flies, we will find that when they are not flying, they often use their feet to brush themselves and brush the two compound eyes with their front feet, and also often use a team of hind feet to "cover their wings". This is because the fine hairs on the feet of flies have taste and olfactory receptors.
The word "rope" also has the meaning of the habit of "good to rub itself with one's feet" similar to that of a fly, and the Song Dynasty Lu Tong's "Pi Ya" has clouds: "The fly is good at intercourse with its forefoot, and has the image of a rope." Hence the rope as a word, from the fly province. "When flies are humming and disturbing tranquility, it is "fly ugly fan", which refers to the habit of flies with good fan wings.
The Book of Poetry. Qi Feng. "Chicken Song" is a poem by a wife urging her husband to get up early and go to the court. The whole chapter is three chapters, and the first chapter is cloudy: "The chicken is chirping!" Towards the end! The bandit chickens chirp, the sounds of flies. It means "You hear the roosters crowing, and everyone has gone to the morning dynasty." And the snoozing husband said, "It's not the rooster that's crowing, it's the flies that are making noise." ”
Golden fly
The Book of Poetry. Lesser. In the "Green Fly", the poet uses the flying sound of the fly as a metaphor for rumors, and advises the king not to listen. There are three chapters in the whole chapter, and the beginning of each chapter has the sentences "Camp flies, stop at Fan", "Camp flies, stop at thorns", and "Camp flies, stop at hazelnuts". Flies do not have a metallic luster, so these "green flies" that stop on fences, on sour date trees, and hazel trees are not flies, but golden flies belonging to the family Liliidae. According to Qing. Shao Jinhan's "Erya Justice" said: "The flies fly in groups, and the flies camp all day long, and they all shake their wings." "It can be seen how carefully the ancients observed.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > bites non-flies</h1>
Houseflies are licking and sucking on food
The mouthparts of flies belong to the licking type, can not eat solid food, can only suck liquid materials, or use saliva to dissolve solid food, digest and then suck.
Flies
It will also regurgitate half-digested food and swallow it again. The bullpen has a fly-like fly , and its mouthparts are sucking. The tip of the stick-shaped muzzle has incisors for cutting drills for bloodsucking purposes (below). Flies occasionally fly into residential areas, so it's not flies that bite you, it's flies.
The fly exposes a club-shaped snout with teeth at the tip and sucks human blood on the leg.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > poetic love fly</h1>
Nowadays people are tired of mentioning flies. The ancients often borrowed scenery lyricism to metaphorically, and the poet's romance and sentimentality also gave some different meanings to the fly.
Zen language
Tang Shi monk Han Shan's "RichEr Martingale Palm" sighed at the time: "Rich children have many martingale palms, and it is difficult to touch things." The barn rice has been red, and the non-lenders have risen. Turn the hook distance, buy silk first. If it is the end of life, the hanger has flies. "The rich family is busy with their duties, and everything is difficult to undertake. Warehouse rice has been piled up for many years, and it has turned crimson, and the borrowers have risen. Always have a clever plan in mind, and when buying silk, you must choose a yarn that is more expensive than silk. After the end of his life, the hanging (hanging) guest has no one but flies.
Song Shouduan Zen master "Fly Through the Window" Cloud: "For love to find light on the paper drill, can not penetrate a few things." Suddenly bumping into the road, I felt that my life was hidden. In order to seek light from the sun, flies flew up and down the paper window and flew around. But bumping around, but always bumping into the paper window and landing on the ground. Just when he was helpless, he suddenly happened to bump into the road that had just flown in, and only then did he get the way to live and fly out. Most of the people who study Zen in the world, like flies, blindly study the Zen classics or the quotations of the ancestors, thinking that they can enter the door of Zen. After a lifetime of blind drilling, I still can't become a Buddha. In fact, contemplation from within is the true path to Zen.
Autumn sounds
Han Yu's poem "Sending Hou Staff Officers to the Middle Curtain of the River": "Sit silently and laugh, like a cold fly." Ouyang Xiu's poem "Huai Zi Hua Yuan Father in the Illness Warning": "Since he was a young man, he was as blunt as a cold fly." Lu You's "Hang Lake Night Return" poem: "In the past, it was like the nine autumn eagles on the shelf, and now it is like the October fly between the windows." "Poets use the metaphor of the cold fly, the habit of being soft, lazy, and not wanting to move after autumn. This metaphor has a long history. The Tang Dynasty Zhang Que 's "Chao Ye You Zai" once recorded the character of people with the metaphor of frozen flies: "Su Wei is only knowledgeable, materialistic, Wang Fangqing has a despicable physique, blunt speech, wisdom is not excessive, only extraordinary, all are Fengge waiters." Or ask Yuan Yiyi: 'Su, Wang Yixian?' The answer was: "Sue got the frost eagle in September, and the king was frozen in October." Or ask why. Answer: 'Frost eagle handsome, frosted fly stubborn.' 'When people say that they can be physically, they are also. (The characteristics of the autumn fly that does not want to move around in Zhang Que's "Chao Ye Yu Zai" have also become a metaphor that the Mo people like to quote.)
Zhou Bangyan's "Drunken Taoyuan" writes the feelings of a woman who thinks of love, and the next piece has clouds: "The love is dark, stuffy, and the body is like a fly after autumn." If you teach to follow the horse and follow the horse, do not quit how many journeys. In addition to using the same fly metaphor, the Chronicle of History is also used. The allusion to the biography of Bo Yilie, "the fly attaches to the tail of the fly to a thousand miles". Although this lady's mood is sad and unhappy like an autumn fly, if she can "follow the horse and follow the groom", her spirit will be lifted, and she will not mind no matter how far away.
Fame
Su Dongpo's "Man Ting Fang" word cloud: "The snail horn is false, the fly head is slightly profitable, and it is very busy." Everything is predetermined, who is weak and who is strong. "The tentacles of a snail and the head of a fly are metaphorically tiny. The people of the world camp all day long, competing for fame and profit. However, fame and fortune are nothing more than snail-horned fly heads, and the gain and loss have their own causes. What is lost is not necessarily weak, what is gained is not necessarily strong, why fight?
Song Zhou Zizhi's "Bamboo Slope Words" and the second "Drunken And Depressed" Cloud: "Liubian Pond Pavilion, late to roll the east wind evil, life is not understandable and frequently happy." Yesterday the flowers bloomed, today the wind blew down. Yang Hua seems to be floating like a person, and Chunyun is more like a thin person, and now he believes that he was wrong before. For a fly head, lightly bear the aoyama about. "The flow of human beings in the world should not be lamented, after all, the blossoming and falling of flowers is an inevitable phenomenon, and we should not cling to the struggle for fame and fortune in the world." The writer lamented that in the past, he had easily failed to live up to the promise of returning to the hidden mountain forest for the sake of a small profit. (The ancients lived in seclusion in the mountains, so they often used the metaphor of green mountains to live in seclusion)
At the moment of sighing, a move swept through, and this cold fly in front of the desk actually evaded my killing move...
