Insects such as blowflies increase their population in the summers when the temperatures are warm. One reason is that most insects are ectotherms hence their body temperatures are dependent on ambient environmental temperatures. In addition, the maggot stage of the blowfly pupates mostly in warm and dry conditions hence increasing winged flies populations in the summer.
