Beneficial Notes

for House Fly

The house fly is not classed as a beneficial. Its only positive footprint is incidental: the maggots feed within the decaying material they inhabit, doing a little waste recycling. That minor role does not offset the contamination risk it brings around people, and it carries no protected status. Source: https://extension.psu.edu/house-flies
