CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What are the uses and functions of raising flies? (Video on What are the uses and functions of raising flies?)

1. Why do some people raise flies?

Flies are raised to feed chickens and ducks. Fly larvae, also known as maggots, are the best feed for chickens and ducks. Maggots contain a lot of protein and are top-quality feed. Now many people raise flies to raise meat maggots, which are healthy and clean, and also to sell to people for eating. Fried meat maggots are sterile and healthy. They are all raised to make money.

2. What are the advantages and disadvantages of feeding fish flies frequently?

Benefits: Flies contain very good meat and are relatively nutritious. Frequent feeding can improve the state of fish, make fish look more lively, and also arouse fish's interest in predation.

Disadvantages: Flies may contain some parasites. Feeding too much may increase the risk of fish being infected with parasites. Therefore, do not feed them frequently. You can mix them with other feeds and deworm them regularly.

3. What benefits do flies bring to humans?

As a link in the ecological food chain, although it does not seem to have any direct benefits to humans, it has many indirect benefits.

For example, larvae are high in protein and can be used in many places, such as food and poultry farming...

In addition, flies are a link in the food chain and are food for other beneficial birds, reptiles, and amphibians. This can be considered an indirect benefit to humans. If this species is lost, other species will become extinct. One link leads to another, and humans at the top will also be affected.

4. Why raise flies?

It was found that flies have a lot of antibacterial proteins in their bodies, which have strong disease resistance. This gave scientists a positive idea: how to use the antibacterial proteins in flies. After research, it was found that fly maggots contain a lot of antibacterial proteins, which makes it easy to extract.

They set up a fly farm, bred sterile flies in large quantities, and extracted antibacterial proteins from the maggots.

5. What is the role of flies in the ecological environment?

When it comes to flies, almost everyone equates them with dirtiness, and people also think they spread disease.

Everyone thinks flies are disgusting creatures.

Little do you know, from another perspective, this tiny insect is not only not annoying, but its contribution to the earth is far greater than yours.

1. Decomposers and Cleaners of the Earth

They can lay eggs on animal carcasses and rotten food, allowing the cute maggots to decompose the excess garbage on the earth. In this case, it can be said that flies have made an indispensable contribution. If there are no flies on the earth, then we will not be able to see a beautiful ecological environment.

2. A good helper in the medical field

In the medical field, flies also play an important role. Doctors use maggots to digest the patient's rotten parts or necrotic tissue. This is a form of biological treatment. Of course, these maggots are artificially bred. They feed on nutrients and have never been exposed to pathogens and bacteria, so there is no question of infecting wounds.

6. What are the benefits of feeding flies to goldfish?

Supplement protein.

Yes, but it is not suitable to use it as the main food source for a long time. Goldfish is a domesticated variant of crucian carp, and is an omnivorous fish. It needs to eat animal food, and preferably plant food, so that it can have a comprehensive nutrition and grow healthily. Too much animal protein will make the water easy to corrupt and increase the difficulty of maintaining water quality. So if you kill a mosquito or fly by hand (note that it cannot be killed by medicine), it is completely fine to throw it into the fish tank to feed it.

7. What is the function of flies? Why do they exist?

Generally speaking, people hate flies because they spread diseases and contaminate food. But they play an important role because they can decompose biological remains. Flies belong to the order Diptera, which has only one pair of wings. Diptera contains more than 12,000 species, accounting for 1/4 of the total number of insects. These insects can be found everywhere, and many of them eat everything, while some, such as female mosquitoes, only live by sucking the blood of humans and animals.

8. What is the use of raising flies?

Chitosan extracted from fly larvae is indispensable in the production of medicine, food, health products, cosmetics, etc. It also has the function of directly inhibiting cancer cells, regulating physiological functions, and enhancing resistance, and is known as the sixth life element of human beings.

9. What are the ten benefits of raising flies?

Although flies always hang out in dirty places, they themselves cannot get sick. Scientists have found in their research that there is a substance in the larvae of flies that has a particularly strong bactericidal ability - antimicrobial peptides, which is the fundamental reason why flies cannot get sick. We put the antimicrobial peptides on a plate with bacteria and observed that the antimicrobial peptides can immediately surround the bacteria one by one. After 5 to 6 hours, all the bacteria are killed. If antimicrobial peptides are used to treat people, they can quickly kill the bacteria in the human body without being toxic to humans.

3. Although flies are small, they are full of treasures! Even the discarded feed of houseflies can be used to produce pollution-free organic fertilizer, which is especially suitable for growing flowers and vegetables. The feeding habits of flies depend on their species. Some specialize in sucking nectar and plant juices, while others specialize in eating human and animal blood or blood from animal wounds and eye and nasal secretions. The common houseflies, golden flies, silky green flies, blowflies, and flesh flies are omnivorous flies, that is, they widely feed on human food, livestock and poultry secretions and excretions, kitchen scraps, and organic matter in garbage. They have a strong tendency to sugar, vinegar, ammonia, and fishy smells. According to research, if female flies are simply supplied with water, sugar, and carbohydrates, they can grow, but their ovaries cannot develop and lay eggs; only by adding protein food or multiple amino acids can they lay eggs normally. If royal jelly is used to feed female houseflies, the early egg-laying period can be shortened and the egg-laying amount can be increased. Flies have a very diverse diet, and they like fragrant, sweet, sour, and smelly foods. When they eat, they spit out crop fluid to dissolve the food. They are used to eating, spitting, and defecating at the same time. Some people have observed that when food is abundant, flies defecate 4 to 5 times a minute. While eating, flies also eat bacteria that are harmful to them, so the method of "eating and spitting" helps to quickly eliminate bacteria. Generally, it only takes 7 to 11 seconds for flies to process food, absorb nutrients, and excrete waste. When encountering bacteria with rapid reproduction ability, the fly's immune system will emit two globulins, BF64 and BD2. Once they come into contact with bacteria, they will "explode" and "die together" with the bacteria. The emission of these two globulins is always one after the other, in pairs, and never mixed up.
