Heh, and the family made fun of me and my fly strips... NANANANA! Don’t eat food if a fly lands on it, as they carry more dangerous bacteria than previously thought, warn scientists 24 November 2017 5:50pm Most picnickers would brush away flies from food, thinking nothing of bugs briefly landing on their sandwiches. But a new study suggests the insects carry far more dangerous bacteria than previously thought, meaning sandwiches are best avoided if they have been contaminated by flies. Researchers at Penn State Eberly College of Science in the United States found that common houseflies carry salmonella, e-coli and even bacteria which lead to stomach ulcers and deadly sepsis. The researchers say flies may have been overlooked by public health officials as a source of disease outbreaks. www.telegraph.co.uk/science/2017/11/24/flies-carry-bacteria-first-thought-warn-scientists/
