UMINGAN, Pangasinan: Swarms of flies are back in town two months after the temporary closure of a poultry farm suspected to be the breeding ground of the houseflies. Is it the poultry [farm] located in that area or are there any other breeding grounds that we are not aware of?" De Leon said that through social media, she learned that at least 20 of this town's 58 villages had been infested with flies. In June, the local government shut down the operations of a poultry farm here after residents complained of housefly infestation. The SB later passed a resolution recommending the temporary closure of a poultry farm in Barangay Cabatuan to Mayor Michael Carleone Cruz, who immediately approved it.
