What do flies hide from?

Fly swatters

No, I mean what animals do flies hide from.

Frogs and lizards

As far as I know, flies do not "hide." They try to escape when the motion around them poses a threat.

I hope this helps a little more. Thanks for asking.

Flies do not necessarily hide from anything in particular. However, they do exhibit instinctive behaviors that help them avoid potential threats or stay safe.

One thing flies try to avoid is being swatted or caught. Flies have quick reflexes that allow them to swiftly evade impending dangers, such as a human hand trying to catch them. When they sense movement or see an approaching object, they often react by flying away.

Flies also tend to avoid extreme weather conditions. During excessively hot or cold temperatures, flies may seek shelter in protected areas, such as small cracks, crevices, or even indoors, to escape the discomfort or potential harm caused by extreme weather.

Another behavior that flies exhibit is avoiding certain substances or environments. They tend to avoid areas with strong insecticides or other chemical sprays since these can be harmful to them. Flies also tend to avoid areas with strong odors or unsanitary conditions, as they are attracted to decaying matter and waste but may avoid extremely foul environments.

In summary, flies do not have specific things they "hide" from but rather exhibit avoidance behaviors based on instinct and survival mechanisms.
