The Latin name for flies is Diptera, and they are typically considered a nuisance because of the diseases they carry. Because they tend to enjoy eating garbage and decaying meats, they spread pathogens to humans easily. Altogether, there are over 10,000 species of flies in America, and they can be found anywhere. While most flies live for only a week, others can live up to a year.

Flies don't necessarily reproduce more in Las Vegas, and we've found out why. Adult flies live the longest during the warm months of the year. A flies lifespan can sometimes be as little as a week, but with the warmer Las Vegas temperature it enables flies to live longer and have a larger window to reproduce.
They begin as eggs, go through a larval period, develop into a pupa, and eventually become adults. During the larval period, they are known as maggots. A female that is fertilized will lay eggs in areas with a potential food supply for the grubs. Once they have eaten plenty of organic material, they will enter the pupa stage in a dry environment. Most of the time, the whole process will take about 14 days. Within a matter of weeks, over one million offspring can be produced.
While a fruit fly may be attracted to rotting fruit or sweet substances, other flies are naturally drawn to rotting meat (usually dead rodents) and feces. In general, you can expect flies to be attracted to moist and organic materials of any kind. Finding what the fly is feeding on is key to removing it from a particular environment.
