Flies become the most disgusting insects. When perched on food, what to do?

Hello friends on #steemit on this occasion I will discuss a bit about the flies alighting in the food. Often we see in the daytime fly flies on the food ...

Straight away or safe to eat?

There are various types of flies scattered in various regions of the world. This group of insects is even more than mosquitoes. They have an important role for decomposition, pollination of plants, and food for predatory insects.

Various types of flies are at risk of threatening health, but often encountered is the type of house fly. In Indonesia, these flies appear during the year and during the dry season, could pose a risk that threatens health.

Musca domestica, this type of fly is better known as a fly that often flies in the area of ​​the house so that the species is spread most widely around the world. Usually these flies make carcasses and feces as their habitat, so these flies are also often called 'fly feces'.

The metamorphosis of these flies starts with the eggs which later become larvae. The larvae of house flies usually feed and hatch in the carcass before it eventually turns into a pupa and develops into adult flies a few days later. Adult home flies are able to survive for a month and lay eggs of up to hundreds of eggs during the lifetime.

The house fly does not bite. Unlike mosquitoes that transmit pathogenic bacteria to humans that are carried in their saliva while biting. L home appliance spread the pathogenic bacteria attached to the body and their feet. As the fly feet settle on the objects around us including food, they also leave their feces and vomit as well.

These insects have no teeth. They can not bite human food, so to eat, flies spit food first until the food is liquid. After the liquid, the food is sucked into the stomach. So if flies are or even fly around our food that has been vomited, then the population of pathogens in the food will certainly be high.

But actually if your food is plastered with flies, you do not need to immediately throw it away. Once perched does not mean it will cause a direct reaction that makes people with good health conditions directly infected with the disease.

Instead pay attention to flies that often fly and perch on your food. The more fly flies, the more pathogens are left on the surface of the food and multiply rapidly. This is what threatens health.

The main risk of flies is actually threatening to people who are away from the city. Perhaps there are not many species, but the risk of direct contact with animal carcasses and animal waste is greater than that of urban people.

Nevertheless, people in urban areas should also maintain cleanliness. Therefore start to notice the area around you, especially food to reduce direct contact with the fly.

Make sure your food is covered when prepared, cooked, and served. Including also note the cleanliness of food left on the dining table.

Note also the area of ​​your windows and doors, if necessary plug the filter wire in the vent so the flies do not easily enter.
Make sure the trash at home is always cleaned. If necessary spray also liquid inteksida on the surface of the trash. This will help reduce the population of flies that often enter the house.
