Flies?

Not my first rodeo. Here is my issue and question. Do certain terpenes attract flies after harvest. I have not had flies on my fly strips in many of years. Now I have 2 strains from the same breeder that seem to attract the brown copper looking house flys once they are hug to dry. It's like they smell it through ac exhaust and attack that window. The room is clean. Once the flies get in they just go for a light. I don't think they want in the dark drying tent. I dont think it's the ac it's self as this issue literally comes with the chop. Today it goes into jars so that will help with deduction too.

I'm trying to piece this together, if you have any experience or knowledge please share.

Does it smell like shit, ? JK man, but there are some funky terpenes,

It's mimosa x orange from bf

And the bf gorilla zkittlez is the other that attracts them. Both my phenos are very purple.

I wonder if they think it's rotting fruit from afar?

Are you speaking global? So your saying I might not be crazy? I really could be being attacked by an abundance of flies?

Mosquitoes numbers and types record highs
Why not flies?
Warmer winters mean less winterkill
So yes
