Part of the world of Nature are the decomposers, and one of the
most efficient of these is the fly.
Macabre though its sounds, most flies thrive because of DEATH.
But before you turn your nose up at them, consider what the world
would be like without them!
Take away flies, and BACTERIA, and dead bodies would be piled
up to the sky - with no smell - but also not much else going on in the
ecosystem.
Decomposers return an elephant, or a whale, to the soil, bones
and all, in only a few months.
They link the organic to the inorganic.
They actually make life possible!
They are essential to your life and mine.

Without them the planet would die - and we can thank God the
Creator of planet Earth for each and every one of them.
