Flies or more specifically their larvae have been approved by the FDA for use medically to fight infection and remove dead tissue from living human beings. Sounds bad but they actually do an excellent job.
Interestingly maggots and leaches are the only living organisms approve for medical use by the FDA.
It's just naturally what they do other than irritate people at picnics.

IMPORTANT MEZZAGE FROM THE FLIEZ:
All animalz on thiz Earth are part of a very complex ecozyztem. Pleaze don’t kill uz with pezticidez!! The pezticidez uzed to kill fliez alzo kill beez and other pollinatorz!
You might not think uz fliez are good for anything! But did you know that zome typez of hummingbirdz eat fliez? We are the food for many other animalz too including: frogz, dragonfliez, damzelfliez, lizardz, zhrewz, zpiderz, chameleonz, preying mantizezez and venuz fly trapz.
Our larvae are now being uzed to treat human woundz and chronic ulcerz becauze maggotz will only eat dead flezh.
Fliez already help to decompoze organic wazte, and we do it for free! One day we might even cooperate with you more clozely – we could procezz your zewerage waztez for free without any chemicalz!

you mean "house flies" I guess; there are lots of kinds of flies.
Well flies of all sorts are good food for birds. They also aid in the decomposition of dead bodies and poop, converting them into plant food.
That doesn't mean you want a lot of them around the house, though.

flies, specifically fruit flies, served as the model organism for mapping out the human genome (2003).

They come from maggots which are excellent at eating decomposing flesh, they help the natural cycle of life and only have a short lifespan anyway.

They are part of the portion of the food chain that decomposes matter so that it can be used by other things, plantlife specifically.
