COMMON TYPES OF FLIES IN SINGAPORE
Houseflies are possibly the most well-known fly species. The presence of four vertical stripes on their back and the grey color of their body distinguishes them.
Another fly species that can be found in our environment is the fruit fly. They’re around 3mm long, yellowish-brown in color, and most have red eyes, making them easy to spot.
Bluebottle flies have a metallic-blue body with red eyes and a body size that ranges from 10mm to 14mm.
Flesh flies are similar in size to bluebottle flies, but they have a grey body and three vertical stripes on the back of the thorax that differentiate them.
Drain flies are sometimes known as moth flies because of their fuzzy bodies that resemble moths. They are usually roughly 2mm in diameter and can be found in drains and floor traps throughout the sewage system.
Another notable fly species that can be found in Singapore is the phorid fly. Phorid flies breed in drainage systems and decaying objects, such as plants.
