Description
The Musca genus, often vilified as mere pests, serves a pivotal role in ecosystems through nutrient recycling and as a food source for other animals. Contrary to popular belief, not all members of this genus are carriers of disease; many are crucial in the process of decomposition and pollination. They exhibit fascinating behaviors such as their unique method of walking on ceilings and other surfaces, thanks to specialized pads on their feet.
