The FLIES are a representation of the evil and decay that exists in all humanity. Flies live on death, the flies do not care who of what you were, their job is to clean up the mess left behind. The flies also represent the boys, who are drawn to the evil that Jack represents just as the real flies are draw to the pig's head on the stick, which was an offering to the beast.

What does the flies represent in 'Lord of the Flies'?

The flies itself do not represent much but that off rotting or decay (from the pig's head). But the flies in the phrase "lord of the flies" do have a meaning. "Lord of the Flies" is translated in the Bible as Beelzebub, or the devil. Also, Simon was not evil, he was the "Jesus" figure in the story.
