 Animals become so distressed by the presence of flies swarming around them, particularly their head and eyes, that they will eat less and therefore have a reduced weight gain and there will be production losses. Animals may move suddenly and try to escape them, causing self trauma. This may then predispose to [[Blowfly Strike|blowfly strike]], secondary bacterial infection and other conditions.
 == Signalment ==
 Any animal or any breed, age or sex can be affected by fly worry, particularly so if the environment is unhygienic.
 == Clinical Signs ==
 Production losses, reduced weight gain, reduced milk yield and notable signs of fly worry such as tossing of the head, sudden movements and reluctance to eat. There may also be signs of self trauma such as 'broken head' in sheep and other abrasions on the animal.

 Clinical signs and visualisation of flies on the animal or around the animal.

-These flies not only cause fly worry but can be vectors for disease. Muscadiae flies can transmit the viral disease coxsackie, enteroviruses and poliomyelitis, as well as African Horse Sickness. They carry the bacteria [[Bacillus species#Bacillus anthracis|Anthrax]], [[Escherichia coli|''E.coli'']], [[Salmonella|''Salmonella'']], [[Shigella|''Shigella'']] and [[Moraxella bovis|New Forest Eye Disease]] and are intermediate hosts for helminths such as [[Habronema and Draschia spp.|''Habronema'']] in horses, some poultry tapeworms, [[Parafilaria spp.|''Parafiliaria'']] and [[Thelazia - Cattle|''Thelazia'']] in cattle.

 == Treatment and Control ==
 It is vital to ensure fly control in breeding and resting sites (to reduce the source). Good sanitation is vital to reduce the area of breeding sites, such as collection of dung into heaps, spraying the surface of dung heaps with insecticide to kill surviving adults and larvae. Spraying resting sites such as farm buildings etc with insecticide is also important.
