Why are flies so darn annoying and persistent to fly on people even when you swat them away?

For real, I can't even take a crap on the toilet without a few flies flying toward me and trying to get under my butt.

I know they're attracted to poop but even when I have fly tapes and swatting flies they still seem to annoy the crap out of me.

Why do flies want to continue to fly towards and land on a person even when I've swatted at them?

lol at the part where you said you're trying to take a crap and they're annoying the crap out of you that made me laugh. lol

I have that happen to me too when I get flies in my bathroom. Can't even take a darn crap without flies hovering near you.
That's so darn annoying.
Flies are attracted to humans and the oil and the smell of our bodies. That's why they keep bothering us and risk getting killed.

I guess that's why I'm not that educated on the flies. I just wish flies didn't exist.

Hopefully someone better educated in why flies do the things they do will answer your question better. I'd love to know too.
