The Housefly (3rd Ed, 1982)
Discusses the life cycle of the housefly, starting from the female laying eggs in garbage and waste. The eggs hatch into legless maggots that feed on the same refuse. After several days of growth, the maggots pupate, undergoing metamorphosis into adult flies. The process is accelerated through time-lapse photography, showcasing the transformation and emergence of the adult fly, which then begins grooming and preparing to fly. The housefly’s behaviors are instinctive, and their lifespan varies between males and females.
