Drosophila breeds quickly, and lays many eggs. It is a common pest in homes, restaurants, and other places where food is served. The lifespan of Drosophila is about 30 days at 29 °C. The shortest development time (egg to adult), 7 days, is achieved at 28 °C. With decreased or increased temperature the development time increases. Females lay some 400 eggs (embryos), about five at a time, into rotting fruit or other suitable material such as decaying mushrooms. The eggs, which are about 0.5 mm long, hatch after 12–15 hours at 25 °C. | Drosophila breeds quickly, and lays many eggs.

===pheromones=== | |||
A pheromone (from Ancient Greek φέρω phero "to bear" and hormone, from Ancient Greek ὁρμή "impetus") is a secreted or excreted chemical factor that triggers a social response in members of the same species. Pheromones are chemicals capable of acting outside the body of the secreting individual to impact the behavior of the receiving individuals.(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pheromone) | |||
