Residents of Rua do Monte dos Burgos, in Ramalde, are worried about a fly invasion affecting the area. The local inhabitants complain about the situation, considering it disgusting.

The situation is said to have worsened during the summer, a period in which insects multiply more rapidly. The residents point to a relationship between the worsening of the problem and the installation of a horse riding center in the area.

The presence of the horse riding center has been indicated by residents as a possible cause of the increase in the fly population on the street.
