The collections of flies were done indoors (kitchen)and outdoors(yard) using a glass trap for each. Boiled rice and peaces of bread were used as bait. In order to collect more dat, the fly-counting with Scudder´s fly-grill was also made outdoors. Five dongs(Subdistrict) in Sungdong-Ku were selected for the study. For convenience each Dong was marked as follows:

Those were classified into four families and seven genera; of these the largest numbre was Calliphoridae(24,628 ir 55.7%) and the second in number was Muscidae(12,343 or 27.9%) Those collected in the market area of Sin-dang-Dong was the highest(17,903 flies) and the lowest was in Sindang-Dong(residential area).
