Default Scariad Flies

Hello folks,
HELP PLEASE, I grow vegatables and salads in pots but I am constantly bothered with scariad flies and the maggoty larva in the compost, I read somewhere that the fly does little harm but that has not been my experience as I have found that any plant that has got these maggots in the compost do not thrive and in a number of cases they are positively sickly, the ideal solution (If there is one) would be something along organic lines for obvious reasons but I would consider a chemical method for my long standing specimen plants that I overwinter,
Help would be greatly appreciated ,
Tom2
