Larvas in decaying vegetablesubstances, dung, etc. M. stabulans It is almost universally believed that the adults of Musca domesticahibernate, remaining dormant throughout the winter in attics,around chimneys, and in sheltered but cold situations. This beliefhas been challenged by Skinner (1913), who maintains that all theadult flies die off during the fall and early winter and that the speciesis carried over in the pupal stage, and in no other way. The cluster-flv, Pollenia nidis, undoubtedlv does hibernate in attics and similar.
