Projek penyelidikan tahun akhir ini mengkaji tentang masalah bahaya lalat rumah yang sering berlaku di kawasan sekitar Seberang Perai Selatan (SPS). Antara faktor penting yang dipertimbangkan dalam kajian ini adalah tempat pembiakan lalat rumah, bagaimana mereka membiak dan kitaran hidup mereka. Di samping itu, daerah SPS juga terkenal dengan sektor penternakan, seperti khinzir, ayam dan lembu. Kewujudan ladang ternakan telah menyebabkan kehadiran lalat rumah di kawasan ini. Kajian ini khusus dijalankan untuk menentukan hubungan antara jarak terbang lalat rumah dari tempat pembiakannya dan di mana penempatan masyarakat yang akan terjejas oleh gangguan lalat rumah. Pengawasan kaji selidik dimulakan dengan mengumpul koordinat lokasi ladang ternakan dan tapak pembuangan sampah terbuka menggunakan aplikasi Android GPS. Perisian GIS-Idrisi Selva versi 17.0 telah digunakan dalam analisis spatial. Klasifikasi ruang, analisis jarak, dan pertindihan matematik telah dijalankan untuk menentukan tahap risiko berdasarkan jarak perjalanan lalat rumah. Keputusan akhir menunjukkan peta risiko kawasan yang terjejas di SPS dibentangkan dalam tiga kategori risiko yang berbeza iaitu sangat terjejas, sederhana terjejas dan kurang terjejas.

This final year research project studies the problem of house flies hazard that frequently occurs in the surrounding area of Seberang Perai Selatan (SPS). Among the important factors that was considered in this study was the house fly breeding places, how they reproduce and their life cycle. In addition, SPS district is also famous for its animal husbandry sector, such as pigs, poultry and cattle. The existence of these animal farms has caused the huge presence of house flies in this area. The study was specifically carried out to determine the relationship between house fly flying distances from their breeding places and the outspread to which the community settlements will be affected by the house fly discomfort. The surveillance survey was initiated by collecting the coordinate locations of poultry farms and open garbage dumping sites using the Android GPS application. The GIS-IDRISI Selva version 17.0 software was used in the spatial analysis. Spatial classification, distance analysis, and mathematical overlays were carried out to determine the risk level based on the travel distances of house flies. The end results shows the risk maps of the affected area in SPS presented in three different risk categories i.e. very affected, moderately affected and less affected.
