Maggots are Fly larvae

All life on Earth is related to some degree, so the answer has to be 'yes' for any two orgsnaisms you care to name. \n\nAre sharks related to dolphins? Yes.\nAre jellyfish related to bananas? Yes.\nAre bacteria related to ostriches? Yes.\n\nIn fact maggots and termites are fairly losely related, both being insects. \n\nMaggots are the larval form of various fly species, kind of like fly catterpillars. Termites belong to a 'primitive' group of insects that don't have a true larval form. Instead they hatch out looking like minitaure adults. So, although they are both insects, maggots and termites are about as distantly related as it's possible for two insects to be.\n\nThat makes termites and maggots about as closely related as a whale and a kangaroo.

it probably will lay eggs inside you so the baby flies, maggots, will hatch and devour your body and they will grow up big and strong

i really have no idea where it came from. for some reasons monkeys come to mind. i think they were carriers and some human got it and then it just kindof spread from there. it took a while to become mainstream.

The housefly has a complete metamorphosis with distinct egg, larva or maggot, pupal and adult stages. The house fly overwinters in either the larval or pupal stage under manure piles or in other protected locations. Warm summer conditions are generally optimum for the development of the house fly, and it can complete its life cycle in as little as seven to ten days, and as many as 10 to 12 generations may occur in one summer.

They come from the east. Meteorologists refer to the wind by the direction in which the winds are coming.

"BANGKOK - Doctors found around 50 maggots in the ears of an 84-year-old Thai man after he went to hospital complaining of an itch." (1)\n\n"Myiasis is the infestation of tissue with fly larvae, commonly referred to as maggots.  It is widespread in the tropics and subtropics of Africa and the Americas, and occurs with significantly less frequency in most other areas of the world.  The infestation is most often subcutaneous and produces a furunculoid or boil-like lesion, but it is also known to occur in wounds and certain body cavities. ." (2)\n\n"In early September, fly larvae (maggots) were seen in each of two stool specimens [*] collected on different days. These larvae were identified as living third-instars of Muscina stabulans, the false stable fly." (3) *from a 12-month-old girl\n\nI honestly can't look for any more; I'm getting queasy. But clearly, maggots can and do live in humans. If they are just under the skin, they cause raised, red infections.

All flies are potential carriers of disease. Too many of them in a home suggests poor hygene. \nLook for magots (fly larve') they will show you where their food source is, that's what you'll need to clean up in order to get rid of them.

Certain gases and their odours that are emitted by manures, decaying tissue etc are the ones that attract flies. Basically they use these to lay their eggs.

Do you mean where do sheep live?\n\nUsually they live in hilly, rocky, grassy areas, places like Argentina, Italy, and if you saw brokeback mountain they have them in Utah too.\n\n"There are a number of different theories regarding the origins of domestic sheep. However, most sources agree that they originated from mouflon. There are two wild populations of mouflons still in existence: the Asiatic mouflon which is still found in the mountains of Asia Minor and southern Iran and the European mouflon of which the only existing members are on the islands of Sardinia and Corsica. These two species are closely related with the only difference being the redder coloration and different horn configuration of the Asiatic mouflon. Some sources even hypothesize that the European mouflon actually developed from the first domestic sheep in Europe being allowed to become feral and that all sheep are actually descendants of the Asiatic mouflon"\n\nIf you were serious about where do sheep come from? They come from the same place monkies do.\n\n\n(Please remember to choose the best answer after 24 hours, dont just leave the question open! Thanks)

I don't think it can be found in the USA. It is found in Chile, Peru, and Argentina, and can cause extreme illness when it bites. While this species doesn't live in the USA, reletives of it do. L. deserta and L. reclusa live in many states, and could be confused with the one you are talking about. While it hasn't been documented in the USA in any of the books I have, it is still possible.
