Are Flies Disease Carriers?
Posted by Mosquito SquadJune 12, 2024
There are a few types of flies living in the Fort Worth area, including houseflies, fruit flies, and blow flies.
Flies can be bothersome. Their behaviors are disruptive to our daily lives. There is no good time to deal with flies darting and diving about your head. Or worse, landing on your food. Whether you are being invaded during a backyard barbecue or inside your home, it is important to understand the potential dangers of fly infestations.
Yes, flies can be carriers of diseases.
Houseflies, for instance, are believed to transmit over 50 diseases. These include dysentery, tuberculosis, salmonella, and typhoid fever. In addition to disease pathogens, flies are also suspected to be able to transmit parasite eggs, such as hookworms. Some biting flies can transmit disease through their bites. Flies in general have nasty feeding habits, often landing on animal waste and animal carcasses. They can then mechanically pass diseases through spreading filth through vomit, or by defecating or urinating on your food, dishes, utensils, or surfaces where your family eats.
