Fruit fies

Fruit flies

As I pass Mt Albert, I see a huge sign that says “ beware fruit fly area, no fruits or veggies”. Fruit flies have been found in the zone which includes Mt Albert.

People can see if there has been a fruit fly on it by spotting if there is black mould on the fruit. The fruits look undesirable to eat. Then this has a great effect on the economy. There will be no exports that will result to the economy to go low.

Fruit flies destroy our fruits and our veggies and that is called contamination & they also make our fruits and veggies moldy. The bio security could get the insecticide to kill fruit flies before they can take away a lot of our fruits and veggies. The bio security have difficulty of keeping fruits and veggies safe because fruit flies have already been through and now they are contaminating our fruits and veggies.

Fruit flies can give people some diseases. They lay maggot eggs in fruits or veggies, the contamination is great that the fruits look rotten and swelling-- who do you think will buy NZ fruits and veggies?
