How fast does the fly reproduce?

Flies are important vectors of disease transmission pests, can infect a variety of diseases to humans and livestock, fertility ranks first in the insect world, its dry matter accumulation doubled in 9.8 minutes, in the absence of external interference, a pair of flies a summer can bear 266 billion offspring, let's take a look at it!

How fast do flies reproduce?

Flies have the physiological characteristics of laying eggs for life once mating. A female fly can lay eggs 5-6 times in her life, about 100-150 eggs per time, up to 300 eggs at most, and can reproduce 10-12 generations in a year. According to the most conservative estimates, each female can produce 200 offspring, so a female fly can reproduce 2 trillion flies in just 11 generations, and this is only a year!

How long do flies live?

The life span of a fly can survive for about 1 month in the summer season, but in the case of low temperature, the life span can be extended by 2-3 months. When it is lower than 10℃, it can hardly carry out activities, and the life span is longer. The adult life span of ordinary flies is 15-25 days. If the larval and pupae stages are included, the life span is 25-70 days. The main factors affecting the life span are temperature, humidity, food and water.

What are the natural enemies of flies?

1. Predatory natural enemies: including frogs, dragonflies, spiders, mantises, ants, lizards, geckos, flies and birds, etc. Chicken manure is the breeding of houseflies and stable flies, but there are often ferocious giant chelates and earwig, which will prey on fly eggs and maggots in dung.

2. Parasitic natural enemies: parasitic wasps such as ichthyodes and wasps often lay eggs in maggots or pupae, and feed on maggots and pupae after hatching. It was found that 60.4% of the pupae dug up in spring were infested by parasitic wasps and died.

3, microbial natural enemies: Japanese scholars found that Bacillus morita can inhibit the breeding of flies.
