Inspired by the hanging plastic bags of water to ward off flies at food markets and taco stands in South Texas and Mexico, simply fill these balls with water and hang them in your outdoor areas to repel flying pests using the refraction of light, which magnifies and reverses movement. colors and images and drives away pests. Flies, bees and wasps feel uncomfortable around the ball and finally, in 6 or 7 days, they stop appearing.

Many devices and chemicals have been made to catch and kill flies. From dinner centerpieces to fly tape in corners, we’ve been swatting flies since the dawn of time. We have screens on our windows and doors, screens on our porches, we have bug zappers, we spray chemicals, all to keep the bugs away while we enjoy the outdoors.

Hanging water balls have made it easy to keep the most annoying pests, the flying ones, away from outdoor areas without chemicals or traps to empty. They activate the flies’ own defense mechanism against them. They don’t like dangling water balls, so they stay away. Simple as that. It takes about a week to train them all, but after that they have better places to go.

Flies are generally attracted to food and other sources of heat/moisture. Areas prone to bacteria growth. Flies come into contact with many decaying substances when searching for food or a place to lay their eggs. They can transfer bacteria and disease wherever they go. Plus they annoy me.

There are so many different flies, I was looking and I think I saw 245?. There are all kinds and they are everywhere. One of the things that defines them as flies is their compound eyes. Flies have a pair of large compound eyes and usually three ocelli or simple eyes. Each compound eye is made of hundreds to thousands of closely packed photoreceptor units called ommatidia. Each ommatidium is an individual sensory cell and the nerves of these ommatidia are connected to the optic lobes of the brain. The fly has invested a LOT of mental power to be able to see. He confuses his sight and feels threatened. If they feel threatened, they stay away. A defense mechanism that has maintained them since the time of the dinosaurs.

With these balls, flies are simply kept away. Amazing! It’s great, hang them and go. No more flies.
