The Unconventional Wisdom of Hanging Pennies in Water Bags
In the South, it’s a common sight to see zip-top bags filled with water, each with a few pennies inside, hung in restaurants, porches, and doorways as a method to keep flies at bay.
Enthusiasts of this homemade fly deterrent suggest its effectiveness is rooted in how flies perceive the world. Equipped with compound eyes, flies possess thousands of tiny lenses sensitive to the slightest changes in light. The theory posits that when sunlight strikes a water bag containing gleaming pennies or aluminum foil bits, it creates a refractory confusion for the flies. Overstimulated and disoriented, the pests choose to vacate the vicinity.
To sum it up, while this technique enjoys popularity among some circles, it doesn’t have a strong foundation in scientific research. For those seeking to keep pests at bay, exploring options with a more robust scientific backing might yield better results.
