During winter flies will hibernate, sometimes in large groups, in any available dry and warm space such as an attic.
The reason there are so few houseflies in winter is that their eggs will hatch only at temperatures between 24º Centigrade and 35º Centigrade (75º Fahrenheit and 95º Fahrenheit). Meanwhile their numbers steadily diminish owing to insecticides and natural causes. This is a good thing since flies often carry diseases.

On the farm lived a chicken and a horse, both of whom loved to play together. One day the two were playing, when the horse fell into a bog and began to sink. Scared for his life, the horse whinnied for the chicken to go get the farmer for help! Off the chicken ran, back to the farm. Arriving at the farm, he searched and searched for the farmer, but to no avail, for he had gone to town with the only tractor. Running around, the chicken spied the farmer's new Harley. Finding the keys in the ignition, the chicken sped off with a length of rope hoping he still had time to save his friend's life. Back at the bog, the horse was surprised, but happy, to see the chicken arrive on the shiny Harley, and he managed to get a hold of the loop of rope the chicken tossed to him. After tying the other end to the rear bumper of the farmer's bike, the chicken then drove slowly forward and, with the aid of the powerful bike, rescued the horse! Happy and proud, the chicken rode the Harley back to the farmhouse, and the farmer was none the wiser when he returned. The friendship between the two animals was cemented: Best Buddies, Best Pals. A few weeks later, the chicken fell into a mud pit, and soon, he too, began to sink and cried out to the horse to save his life! The horse thought a moment, walked over, and straddled the large puddle. Looking underneath, he told the chicken to grab his hangy-down thing and he would then lift him out of the pit The chicken got a good grip, and the horse pulled him up and out, saving his life. The moral of the story? "When You're Hung Like A Horse, You Don't Need A Harley To Pick Up Chicks

Fantastic question,
I spent thousands of pounds making a transmitter for the answer to this very question.. I carefully caught one, a Blackpool Grey species and Supa glued a trans on its back. Then i slung it out of the window to start it off on its incredible journey.. When i turned on the reciever shortly afterwards, i just could not believe my eyes. It was travelling at an incredable speed.and heading North.. I jumped in the car, switched on the converted Sat nav and followed its signals.. To cut an incredible story short, i felt such an idiot.. When i slung it out of the window, maybe the weight of all that equipment, i dont know, but it did weigh about two pounds, was too much for it , so it plummeted 7 stories down towards the railway track and landed on the roof of the 7.15 to Northampton.. I live right next to a railway line, Luckily the equipment was intact when i finally got to the railway sheds in Brafield... So i think that probably your answer could be .. Emm, in my experiment, the fast train to Northampton...

They may hibernate or just die while the larval stages persists till the next season when they undergo metamorphosis to become adults.
