In this project, enterococci from the digestive tracts of 260 houseflies (Musca domestica L.) collected from five restaurants were characterized. Houseflies frequently (97 % of the flies were positive) carried enterococci (mean, 3.1 103 CFU/fly).

Insecticide resistance in houseflies in California
Precise measurement of insecticide toxicity against house flies from various poultry ranches, dairies and cattle feed lots provided evidence of the presence of resistance roughly in proportion to the extent of insecticide use in each situation.

The effects of laboratory culturing on (Z)-9-tricosene (musculure) quantities on female houseflies.
Using gas chromatography the relative amounts of (Z)-9-tricosene (muscalure) and some other hydrocarbons on the cuticle of 1- to 20-day-old houseflies (Musca domestica L.) from different strains were determined.
