If however, you are talking about some maggots in a bowl of wet food (either canned food or dry food which got wet or which you deliberately added fluid to) it is a different matter. Maggots come from flies eggs and they take some set period of time to hatch from the eggs.
Later, maggots, then more flies were seen on the meat. In the gauze-covered jars, no flies were seen in the jars, but were observed around and on the gauze, and later a few maggots were seen on the meat. In the sealed jars, no maggots or flies were ever seen on the meat. Conclusion(s): Only flies can make more flies. In the uncovered jars, flies entered and laid eggs on the meat. Maggots hatched from these eggs and grew into more adult flies. Adult flies laid eggs on the gauze on the gauze-covered jars.
