Question

Why do flies like poo sooo much?

Answer 1

Hi,

Ain't just flies. a lot of other insects & beetles do it.

The dung-beetle rolls it up and takes it home for the larder.

most animal poo is very nutrient rich.

Monkey poo drops from the trees, a feast for he bugs on the ground.

Disgusting for humans, so can't see a tin of "poo-balls in gravy" on the shelves happening.

Roses like mature horse poo as well.

Yummy !

Answer 2

Besides being nasty little creatures, "poo" is their preferred place to lay their eggs, and when the maggots hatch, they have a ready food supply. Yuch!

2. Usually they put there eggs in stuff like that or decaying this so their magets would eat off of it.
