To get rid of circling flies in your house you can try using a vacuum cleaner to suck up the flies but sometimes that does not kill them.

You can also put up some fly tape which will attract the flies to the fly tape and when the flies land on the fly tape they become stuck and eventually die.

You can also make a homemade fly trap and use apple cider vinegar to attract the flies to the fly trap.

  1. Use a shallow dish bowl and fill it with an inch of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of sugar.
  2. Next, add some fruit-scented dish soap.
  3. You can leave the dish uncovered or tightly covered with plastic wrap.
  4. Make sure to poke a few holes in it to attract the flies. 

 

Alaska or any other really cold place that stays cold year round mostly would have hardly if any flies.

But most other states do have many flies.

I know Kansas is a state that has a lot of flies as well as Arkansas.

I used to live in Kansas as a kid and we were bothered by so many flies during the summer and even partly in the fall months.

You'll never fully get rid of flies or get away from them but you can kill off flies that bother you.

Also flies do have brains.

The brains that flies have are not as important as human brains and actually a fly can live for a few days without it's brain.

However the fly does need a brain for the processing of information and to allow movement of it's body and to be able to see.

A flies brain is about 100,000 neurons and like the fly the brain a fly has is very tiny.

Flies also have a pretty short lifespan and the average fly lives about 28 days before dying of natural causes.

Although most flies are killed off by us humans to get rid of them in the house and around us.

Flies although annoying do play a very important role in the earth as they eat away at decaying matter.
