| description | The Housefly (Musca domestica Linnaeus, 1758) lives in close proximity to humans, posing a variety
of health risks. They are mechanical vectors capable of spreading an arraying of infections and annoy
humans. More than 100 types of pathogens, including bacterial, viral, and protozoan, are transmitted
by houseflies, and in this review, we describe 5 of them: Cholera, Anthrax, Shigella, ORF Virus, and
Ascariasis. Cholera is a rigorous flux ailment initiated via the Vibrio cholerae bacteria contaminating
the intestines. The ailment is often modest or does not present symptoms, but it can also be dangerous
and lead to death, while anthrax is a harmful infective illness brought about by Bacillus anthracis.
Shigellosis (Shigella infection) is a gastrointestinal ailment caused by Shigella spp. Bloody diarrhea
is the most common sign of shigella infection. Houseflies are a severe health hazard for humans,
causing discomfort, disease, and even death. Studies that assess the impact of Houseflies on humans
were briefed. Articles on PubMed, Google Scholar, and other online reports, 50 in number, were
reviewed.The genesis and life cycle of houseflies, their mode of disease transmission, commonly
transmitted diseases are all discussed in this paper. Biological, chemical, and cultural control are some
of the common control strategies discussed. |
