Read how the common house-fly could wipe out your family
YOU MAY BE REVOLTED BUT THAT’S BETTER THAN BEING DEAD!
Straight from manure heaps and filthy garbage, flies come into your home swollen with dirt and germs. Each fly is covered with myriads of tiny, sticky hairs – and each hair can carry enough infection to wipe out your family.
Whatever they touch, food, plates, cutlery, even if they just brush it as they pass, immediately becomes a breeding ground of germs.
The eating habits of flies are even more disgusting. The moment the toothless fly lands on your food, it vomits an infection-charged fluid to liquefy it before eating, then sucks through its hairy, syphon-like mouth. Medical research recognises the common house-fly as one of the greatest potential dangers to community health.
Flies can carry such deadly diseases as POLIO-MYELITIS, TUBERCULOSIS, DYSENTERY or GASTRO_ENTERITIS into your home . . . on to the very food you eat.
