Flies are an order of winged insects that survived the Great War.
Background[]
Common flies weathered the apocalypse and came out seemingly unmutated. Their ecological niche remains unaltered as well: people view flies as little more than pests or vectors for disease, but they serve a vital role in the consumption of detritus. Much to the irritation of ghouls, this means that flies feed on the nutrients of their rotting bodies.[2][3]
Appearances[]
Flies appear Fallout 2 and are mentioned in Fallout 3[4] and Fallout: New Vegas.[5]

The Chosen One: "{125}{}{That's just plain nasty. Why not take a bath or something?}"
Eric: "{128}{}{I've tried that. I've tried everything. The only thing that keeps the flies off me is not to sweat... and when I don't have enough power to keep cool, I can't.}"
