Abstract/Contents:Describes the findings of several fly species beneath the housing of a power mower. Discusses an experiment in which flies, larvae and pupae were placed in an envrionment to simulate the conditions of power mowers to "show the extreme adaptability of certain flies and their ability to breed in small isolated niches. They also point out that urban fly control programs can never be completely effective while moist organic matter in any quantity, such as found lodged in the housings of power mowers, is left undisturbed for 5-7 days."
