Exodus 8:21 Else, if you will not let my people go, behold, I will send swarms …

Psalm 78:45 He sent divers sorts of flies among them, which devoured them; and …

Psalm 105:31 He spoke, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.

The inhabitants have been forced to quit their cities, not being able to stand against the flies and gnats with which they were pestered. Hence different people had deities whose office it was to defend them against flies.

Exodus 8:14 And they gathered them together on heaps: and the land stank.
