How to use "Deer fly" in context?
Deer fly is a small, 332-gram (), fly in the family Calliphoridae. Deer flies occur in all parts of North America. As their common name implies, the females lay their eggs on the backs of deer, so they are also commonly known as deer fly eggs. The larvae feed off of the keratinous upper surface of the deer's skin. The adults are attracted to light and can be found in open areas near water, such as streams and ponds. They are considered a nuisance to humans, irritating with their ubiquitous flying, but they are not known to transmit any diseases.
