flying would be called air swimming so a fly would be a swim, but if it could not fly it would be a sink, then a kitchen sink would be a fly. The trouble starts when you get a sink in your fly! OO-er!
fyi (fly is a UK term for guys pants zipper)

Good question.
I'm sure they would be still be called "pests" whether they flew or not.
On the same subject - what would oranges be called if they were purple?
