What is the lifespan of a fly?

[Hyperblaze]

I discovered I've got a few flies inside my place. I have the option of either killing them myself or letting them live their lifespan. So wondering, how long do they live for?

I plan on having a fly free environment in the next couple of days.

House Flies

* About 1/4 inch long; dark dull gray, pale abdomen, 4 dark stripes down thorax (Chest).
* Breed in warm organic material - garbage, lawn clippings, decaying vegetables, manure, etc.
* Most common household fly pest.
* Short 8-day lifespan, with 10-12 generations per season.

I HIGHLY recommend you track down and kill those flies with utmost haste. A few years ago I left the backdoor of my house open to move in some furniture and a couple of flies got in. I killed one but I could'nt find the others, well about a week later I had literally more than 40 or 50 flies swarming around. It was a freaking nightmare, I finally had to set off a bug bomb in the house and I ended sleeping in a hotel that night. The next day I had the disgusting task of vacuming up dead flies, it turns out that the flies had somehow found a way into the kitchen garbage can and where breeding like crazy.

Moral of story kill all flies in your house post haste

Funniest story was when my sister was in the bathroom and came out screaming. Apparently a fly landed on the counter of the sink and just croaked. There are now constant stories about her killer #2's.
