How did Francesco Redi and Louis Pasteurs experiments disprove spontaneous generation?

He proved that the maggots didnt come from the dead meat, a living fly had to create a living maggot. This way, he proved that living things can only come from living things, not dead. Pasteur disproved the idea that the broth, which had no living things in it, created bacteria. By not allowing dust to touch the broth by using a curved flask, he disproved the idea that dead broth created living bacteria.
