| Abstract: | Housefly larvae were cultured on meat and collected for the isolation and identification of microorganisms associated with them.The microbes were cultured from both the gut and body surface of the maggot on nutrient agar (for bacteria) and potato dextrose agar (for fungi) and incubated at about 37°C for 48 hrs before observations. A variety of microorganisms, which includes the pathogenic Staphylococus aureus, pseudomonas sp. and Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus were isolated. |
