🪰 Mutant Fly

The Mutant Fly is an aggressive monster in Stardew Valley found in the Mutant Bug Lair. It is the transformed form of the Mutant Grub, appearing if a grub is left alive long enough to cocoon. Mutant Flies are fast, deal more damage than Cave Flies, and often spawn in swarms, making them a serious threat.

They share many traits with regular Cave Flies but are stronger, more durable, and more dangerous to unprepared players.
