The only question is whether the fly could survive the dry hot weather of the Southwest. I'd be interested to see how they are doing now.
If we're talking about the same program the flys start out as worms (not maggots.)

And they first tried ant lions, which just got completely ****ing ruined by fire ants...

Denver rookie QB John Elway, on Jack Lambert, after Lambert and the Steelers knocked Elway out of his first game as a pro (1983).
