Hey, check out this ultimate housefly quiz that we've created here for you. Houseflies are one of the most common insects in our everyday lives, seeing as their name implies, they even live with us. Nonetheless, we digress—houseflies have red eyes which are closer to each other in the males than the females. They also see the world seven times faster than we do, hence the reason why you never seem to hit them no matter how fast you go. Take the housefly quiz and learn more interesting facts.
