    I despise flys with a passion and felt something snap in me when I heard the buzzing sound in the video.
    But despite my hatred towards them it’s good to learn facts about them, great video 👍

      I like how flies are so fast. And the way they rub their paws when looking at your food. Then they do the little neck twitch like they have a mental tick.
      They are like little ninjas. And if you can smack them, then you can call yourself a ninja cuz you must have cat-like reflexes to even get them. I mean I hate flies too, but they are a formidable foe and I kinda envy those skills.
      Flies and dragonflies are the best fliers out there, at least for bugs.
      Peregrin falcons and owls for speed and stealth respectively and then there's that hawk/falcon then can sharply turn and navigate forests to capture their prey.
      So yeah, I definitely have a love-hate feelings towards bugs.

    I like most insects a lot, but I really dislike flies. I find them very annoying, but you've set my thinking straight on their usefulness in the environment. I figured they had some use (everything does), but I didn't know what the use was. And since they ranked really high on the annoyance scale, I never took the time to find out. Thanks for the information!

    I know that flies can be dangerous vectors of disease, but are also an Important Part of the Food Chain. As you pointed out, they preform Beneficial Services, like Breaking Down Garbage,(a huge environmental problem!) and some species are even pollinators. I prefer use Natural Pest Controls: Good Fitting Screens and allowing the beautiful, Black and White Jumping Spider,(Which isn't poisonous and very rarely bites.) to live in my house, between the glass paynes and the screens where the flys congregate. Also, I kept a little, terracotta clay pot, with part of the rim broken out, for a large Toad to live on my patio to eat the flys. I also encourage the beautiful Native Anole Lizard with potted plants, to live on my patio. I like to keep an Eco-friendly house.

      Have you seen the beetle.
      Its pretty much an amored tank.
      And dragon flies are just like Helicopters but so much more agile.
      Bumblebees are like bomber class planes. Humongous yet strangely able to fly.
      Hornets are like fighter jets. (F-18, ffs 🤣) fast and armed with weapons that hurt
      Bagworm literally cover themselves us with random stuff just like a voltron/power ranger fighter assembly themselves for their mecha.

      @@McConagher Oh I see what's going on here! In most anatomical studies of beetles I've looked at, the elytra are defined as a pair of "hard wings" (sometimes referred to as the "forewings"). It seems like you're saying that you don't count the elytra as "wings" which is where this discrepancy is coming from. I can see your point of view, since the elytra aren't like the typical flight wings in beetles. I choose to go by general scientific naming for these, however, hence my defining them as wings. Hopefully that clears that up!
