Abstract

OBJECTIVE
To identify which bacteria colonize the surface of Musca domestica and their potential pathogenicity for humans.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Exploratory descriptive study. Study Material: Musca domestica. Flies were trapped in different places, these were procedure: initially introdijo the Fly in BHI broth as enrichment broth, and then was incubated was planted in different agars, where bacterial growth was obtained, which were identified following the  process you have in the clinical laboratory Marian Congregation.
RESULTS 
We captured a total of 20 flies, which are able to document the growth of many bacteria, the most common: Bacillus spp (18,5%), followed by coagulase negative Staphylococcus (16.9%), Escherichia spp (11.8%),  Pseudomonas spp (11.8%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (8.4%), Corynebacterium spp (5.0%) and Providencia spp, Streptococcus spp, Enterobacter cloacae with (3.3%) isolates each, among others.
CONCLUSIONS
In this study it was possible to isolate and identify bacteria flora species such as Musca domestica on the surface and reviewed the role of these bacteria as causative agents of human disease.
