Fruit flies
As I pass Grey Lynn suburb, going to my cousin's house, I can see a big sign that says ‘Beware of fruit flies you cannot bring fruits out Grey Lynn’. Why are fruit flies a big problem to NZ ? How did they come into New Zealand? How could they get rid of them? Here are some facts about fruit flies.
The fruit flies have been here in New Zealand not once but 4 times.
The fruit flies can infect fruits by laying eggs in or on the fruit.
Did you know that they lay 500 eggs at one time? Imagine yourself biting a fruit and you didn't even know that in the fruit there
are eggs fruit flies laid on. How disgusting is that? How can we get rid of all these horrible fruit flies around us so we can have good delicious fruit to eat? Well, first people should not take any fruits or veggies out of their property until fruit flies are gone. Let the local authority settle this problem.
