HOUSE FLY

FACTS ABOUT HOUSE FLIES:

House Flies Taste with Their Feet. How do flies decide something is tasty? They step on it! Like butterflies, house flies have their taste buds on their toes, so to speak. The moment they land on something of interest – your garbage, a pile of horse manure, or perhaps your lunch – they start sampling its flavour by walking around.

House Flies Can Walk Upside Down. Slow motion video shows that a house fly will approach a ceiling by executing a half roll maneuver, and then will extend its legs to make contact with the substrate. Each of the house fly's legs bears a tarsal claw with a sticky pad of sorts, so the fly is able to grip almost any surface, from smooth window glass to a ceiling.

House Flies Poop a Lot. There's a saying, "Never poop where you eat." Because house flies live on a liquid diet, things move rather quickly through their digestive tracts. Nearly every time a house fly lands, it defecates. So, in addition to vomiting on anything it thinks might make a tasty meal, the house fly almost always does poop where it eats. Keep that in mind next time one touches down on your potato salad.
