I've heard about the bags of water for Flys before but never tried it. My brother-in-law made one and put pennies in the bag. He swears by that. Thanks.😊
Holy 🐄🐮🐄🐄 !!! Are for serious? Wowow!! I must try this summer!!! Yeeeee
@@jaqkerouac6340 pen irs a few in bag of water works for flys,sun hits bag pennies sparkle and no flys.
Yes I’ve seen it
With a penny at fruit stand. I put one by my bunny cage coz the poop attracted the flies! They also use them in horse stalls etc.

Что же Без перевода? Издеваетесь?
In Central Pennsylvania, I visited an Al Paca Farm and I asked the Farmer what in the world were the "plastic water bottles with pennies?" He said the sunlight reflects off of the coins and that deters the flies. He places them in the fenced in area every 10 feet or so. Each bottle was filled just below the neck, and he had 3-4 pennies on each bottom. He said " I know you think I'm nuts, but it works."
Thank you for this hint. I will be trying it for sure!
Growing up in south Texas we didn't have AC we lived on the coast so the wind blows all the time needless to say all the windows and doors were open.. my grandpa had bags of water hanging over every door and window.. we never had flies in the house! It works
To seal food in baggies, I just use a straw. Insert the straw in the corner, seal the bag, then suck out the air with the straw. Pull out the straw and seal the rest of the bag.
Australia 🇦🇺! I'm an Aussie Both tips are great, we get a lot of flys here!! The veggie tip is fantastic, a great way to prolong the life of the veggies. 🤩🌻
‘I’Ve just come back to the UK from visiting Ayres Rock…..they ought to try it there.😄
@Snoopy I doubt it.
@Snoopy try it
The flies at the outback are super annoying, I wouldn't mind walking around with this bag around my neck if it works
I’m in Australia too I pack my fruit and vegetables in foil they last for a few months make sure they a dry don’t wash until you need to use them.
Avocado put them in a container with water place the lid and put them in the fridge I buy a lot of avocado when there in special so I preserve them with water the firmer they are the longer they last I’ve had mine in the fridge for 5 weeks still firm. The unused other half has been in the fridge for 2 weeks it hasn’t gone black still green but just tinge of discoloration.
It lowers cholesterol if eaten first thing in the morning so I buy a lot of them for other purposes too. Even if the avocado goes out of color you can make avocado oil but needs to be really ripe with no green
Okay, first ....I'm from California my friend and that is the best example of mechanical aptitude that hinges closely with common sense. I have never known nor heard of these obvious solutions to common situations.....i really wanted to thank you for this. I love that i am humbled and seriously inspired to reflect more inward than outward now in life. This is no joke!!! I just wanted you to know that you literally gave me inspiration...thanks again and keep the smiles on
Wow. This really meant a lot to you. Good. All the best
Well, you're in California. Common sense has been eradicated there for a while.
I’ve learned not to over do my dictation.
Hi, I'm from Canada 🇨🇦 I liked both tips. Thank you for sharing your tips with us, it's greatly appreciated ❤
I tried this. The sun shone through the window into the water and aluminium and that concentrated light was reflected onto my curtains which caught fire. My whole house burned down. I’m now homeless. On the upside, I made up a second water bag and hung it on the bush I’m sheltering under. It certainly keeps the flys away. The raccoons and I thank you for your amazing idea.
LOL I was afraid that might happen. Just as well you still have internet access 🤣
Wow! You sure have an imagination 😉, Thank you for the interesting story🥰
🤣🤣🤣
Just make sure you don't start a forest fire please.
@@yanasitta you’re not going to believe this but last night…..
I love both tricks. Never heard about bag of water with aluminum balls🤓 To get rid of little banana flies: fill an empty jam glass with a little vinegar and 1 drop of liquid soap. Put plastic/ aluminum over top, then an elastic band around. Make a tiny hole in plastic/ aluminum foil. Flies seek in - and drown. (from Denmark).
Sounds a great idea.
I tried the apple cider vinegar/dish soap method for gnats/fruit flies. It worked for a bit but gnat ghosts must have spread the word because last summer it didn't work nearly as well.
I placed 9 clear plastic cups around the house. Some with cheap vinegar and some with real fruit vinegar and a few drops of liquid soap. Clear plastic covers, some with less holes and some with gaping holes.
Exactly same thing happened what Beverley Slade has stated.
First year killed quite a few. Next year a failure. The house smelled of vinegar.
Now occasionally I use an electronic zapper, But only indoors, PLEASE do not use Electronic Zappers outdoors to kill mosquitoes. You’re going to kill all the insects that are essential to nature and not mosquitoes. They don’t get attracted to the UV light, they go after the tiny amount of Carbon Dioxide gas emitted by humans and warm blooded animals.
Hi, I will definitely use these tips, thank you for uploading them.
I have a cleaning tip: to shorten cleaning the top of your kitchen cupboards, clean them thoroughly with hot soapy water, or your usual go to cleaning solution. Once you are happy with the clean, Do Not Dry Off (leave it slightly damp) Instead put 'Cling film/clear plastic wrap over the surface as it will stick to the damp surface.
Then next time you need to clean them, just carefully remove the cling film/clear plastic wrap so no dust falls off, then put it in the bin ❤
Now all you have to do is lightly dampen the surface and repeat. Finished in half the time
Enjoy
Hugs and stuff from UK
That is awesome, thank you for sharing 💜
Thanks but we add to the plastic waste in the world. It will work on refrigerator shelves too.
I really liked the tip about the plastic bag and aluminum foil. Thanks so much ❤
I’m in Australia so the first one is a must have for me! Thanks heaps.
My dad was a butcher and taught us this but he used a pennie instead of aluminium foil. It really works.
Aluminum Foil works!!
You had my undivided attention. Thank you. I'm sharing now
Loved them both. What good ideas. I'm from the USA. 🥰🥰
Your tip for keeping flies away and for keeping produce fresher in your refrigerator storage we’re both of significant importance and I definitely will be trying them. Thank you for sharing.!🙂🇨🇦
I always use a clear baggie near the door with a penny and it helps tremendously for a couple pennies try this Wendy from the USA , Thank you for all your videos You help me so much
I used to cook 'on the riggs' - (oil camps) along, & off the Alaska Highway, in Northern Canada, & in the summertime, it was nice to leave the kitchen doors open...& we did a similar set up, as this - but instead of aluminum foil, we just threw in 3-4 pennies, & hung the bag from over the stove vents. Works lik a charm!!..no flies - ever!!!
Thanks for the positive feedback
Did this in Portugal kept mossys away plus flies
Why? How does it work?
@@aeiv5754 voodoo magic … 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
Yes! I just commented about the pennies in the bag of water. I learned the penny and water trick years ago when I was a child. Couldn't remember if it worked or not. But you answered that for me. Thank you!
From Canada 🇨🇦, I love both of these tips, especially the one to keep flies away 😃, thank you.
Kim O. From the United States 🇺🇸. I see lots of people who commented on this and some have even used this method but with pennys. I’m going to definitely share this video if I see it works! Ty
We have done this on the back porch for years, makes for very enjoyable, fly-free picnics!
Both were excellent! Thank you for sharing! 👍

You can also use shiny new pennies! I did this on my porch last summer and it worked!
My hubby showed me when we first got married the "sealing" meat and veggies with plastic bags and water. It's really easy and works well!!
Love from Connecticut USA!
I’ve never heard of the “sealing meat and veggies with plastic bags and water” trick. Would you mind sharing?
@@sallyciuzak3891 it's at the end of the video
@@3ate4 Thank you. Just watched it...pretty clever.
We had these all over Southern AZ when I was growing up. They work.
The food preserving video is great. I have a vacume sealer but this is faster, easier and cheaper. It will also work great for packing nonfood items in a more compact manner such as cloths.
I've never encountered anything like this at our market... definitely gonna try this fly repellent. Thanks for sharing from Philippine 😊
Hi Ashley I from Philippine as well ;)
Some restaurants in the phils uses bottled water filled with aluminium foil sticks to repel flies😊
Learning with pleasure and gratitude from Ghana in West Africa.
I had seen the bags with pennies in water, but didn't know what they were for, Thank you Going to give it a try
I’m from the heartland in Illinois in the US, and I’ve used pennies… The foil floating around makes a lot of sense! I’ve got to both try, and share this; thank you❣️
U are a genius thanks for sharing both great ideas u made my day wow ❤️👌🙌
My grandmother always did that too. I completely forgot. Thanks for the reminder, greetings from Switzerland 🇨🇭

I was curious about the bag of water, and it might come in handy during the summer time for us, and around the BBQ or when we want spend time outside in the yard. Very cool. Though the veggies sealing trick was awesome - it eliminates the need for a machine sealer. I'm going to be using this and I can't wait to try it out. It should be fun and my food will last longer!
I have found that storing veggies in a bag that actually breathes works well too. That's why the grocery stores near me have those kinds of bags to put your veggies in when you buy them. Keeps them in a cool, dry place if you don't have a crisper drawer in your fridge.
Tried it. Does not work!! Use fly swatter.
Both tips are amazing and so useful to know. Thank you so much. Sending greetings from the UK x
Honestly, great tips. For sure will use them. Thank you.
Neat trick with the bagged veggies and water. Ingenuity at its best
I'm from Malaysia. Houseflies are common here. Great tip. I'll be trying it.
Also another tip from the comments , ie, a few drops of dish wash in a sweet drink.
Thank you
The bag of water 'trick' really works, even without the tinfoil. Been doing it every summer for years near open doors, outside. I learned about it many years ago on a Rick Steves Travel Tour of Portugal. It has to do with the atmospheric pressure & humidity that flying insects can detect. They avoid having water above them, as a drop of water can wipe them out. Also, the old inverted plastic popbottle wasp trap works well ... but I will add soap next time, thanks for the explanation. Science!
Wil try it 🎉from south African
I still don't know... Though I'm no butcher, myself, I do come from a third generation of butchers: my girlfriend is also a second generation butcher herself. And without going down to the local cemetery (that's a joke, people's). This little trick is one we haven't heard of. So I was, and still am, a little sceptical about an old Indian wives tale, and that's kind of like after I t-rafed.
But what you say about the 🪰 not like being under water, and what not. And unless they've got some form a genetic memory, I have no idea how they'd even come to such a conclusion. Still, what you say almost rings true. So, from DownUnder, I'll give it a crack.
@@raymondbrady8742 I fill a large strong baggie half full of tap water, twist the top closed & use a rubber band to secure it. Then suspend it from the top of the door frame outside. I have seen the wasps head for the door then make a sharp left away when they came in range. Sonar? Radar? Water Density? A built-in barometer? I don't know, but it works.
This doesn't work at all, sorry. It's been tested and proven wrong many times, by many average people and by scientific studies. Even myth busters did an episode on it. Bags of water has no effect on any flying insects. Either something else is getting rid of your flys, or you simply think there's less of them because your paying more attention after hanging the bags.
Unrelated, but pissing on a jelly fish sting will make the pain worse, and if you have any breaks in your skin you can potentially get an infection. I just figured if y'all actually believe a bag of water can scare bugs, then you probably believe all kinds of nonsense. And if flies can get "taken out" by a single drop, then you wouldn't see a fly for weeks after it rains, this again, is simply not true in the slightest. Quit listening to advice your grandma gave you and read a book or something
I'm not sure it's to do with the flies not wanting to fly under a bag of water incase a drop land on it lol i heard it's something to do with the tinfoil emitting an illusion of a bigger predator with big eyes from the reflection in the water and tinfoil so they don't go near
Hello from the United States, Indiana to be precise 👋 I can't wait to try the water & foil idea this spring. We live in close proximity to a couple cattle farms and the flies are atrocious. I'm praying this trick works and I can actually enjoy my time and not keep a fly swatter in hand at all times lol
WAS IN NFL'S SOUTH BEND.
Good luck…🎉
From Northern Az here.
I don’t see how this will work but I’ll definitely try it this summer since I raise chickens and deal with flys every summer.
Add copper pennies anything bright deters fly's etc from the UK
Vincennes here. I’m going to use both foil and bright pennies. I noticed the foil floats on the top of the water, and pennies on the bottom, so why not!
My favorite was the one that will keep flies away, but I really did like both tricks! Thank you for sharing.
Never been tried both tricks but I will give it a try. Thank you for such a wonderful tutorial video!
Thanks so much. I have learnt so much from your videos. I did a 28 day fast and did refeeding with bone broth and a banana and saurkraut for 3 days and then other food for a day or 2 and then felt great so ate what I liked. I have had swolen feet and legs for a week or so now. I have been very concerned and now have peace that its edema from refeeding to quickly. The swelling, water retention has subsided the last 2 days. Ill definately take more care with the refeeding on my next fast.
You could also use small "disco ball" like christmas balls they sell sometimes in decor stores to drive flies away. Just put them in a clear glass table centerpiece bowl
Could you not just hang them from the doorway, like from a 8 - 12 inch string?
Oh, I LIKE that idea! I'm gonna try it, cause the bags look ugly and we get so many flies come the monsoons!
With or without water?
Yeah, but if you play the Bee Gees' Stayin' Alive at the same time it will attract the flies.
@@thisplaceisazoo omg that was so funny !!
Thank you for both of those great tips. The tip for the carrots, getting air out of the bag before sealing, is so smart!!!!
An even better trick is to just buy a $20 vacuum sealer.
@@chingron yes, because the ziploc will not stay sealed. They never do.
Colorado Catherine here and thanks for the tips! Looking forward to summer and flies outta my house
Loved both. Have a need for both! Thank you
Greetings from Australia 🇦🇺 Absolutely awesome tips 👏👏👏 Thanks for sharing 👍
Great tip , thanks so much ❤
Wow I’ve been doing this for 25 years I don’t put the foil but it still works it really works
*I can say the zip lock in water works extremely well* - Note that for the freezer, you need to dry off the outside of the bag, otherwise it will freeze to other items and tear the bag when moved, breaking the air seal. I am single and don't consume a lot of anything quickly, and I hate small stops at the grocery - I use it (or in some cases just suck the air out of the ziplock) to extend bread buns in the cupboard for several weeks without getting stale or moldy, chopped lettuce in the fridge to last for several weeks, I haven't found the limit for meats and buns in the freezer.
When it comes to bread, Making it fresh urself is best... Honestly its super easy AND if u got house oven, u can make artisan bread for dollar or two and know whats in it.
Spring is right around the corner here. I look forward to using this method and will tell everyone i know! Bugs bug me lol 🇨🇦
From Wyoming, USA. I’m loving the fly trick. Will definitely try it this summer. Thank you for sharing. 💕🥰💕
Unbelievable I finally found somebody does what I did incredible I love it
Originally from India now living in the United States. God bless you. Thank you for sharing. Definitely will try the aluminum foil one😥we get lots of unexpected flies this time of the year (beginning of Spring).
Would really love to try it and also share this in Zim
I Left India in 1975. Remembered being told not to eat street food. People shit on street, flys land on it and then on street food. Things may have changed now, I hope 😂
Wow! How could I have missed that!? Thanks for the fly repellent! 🙏
I'm 67 & grew up in Florida. Of ALL people we should know any bug tricks (lol), but I've never heard of this one.
Hi, a big thank you from Italy. I will soon try the bag with alluminium for the “no flies zone”. God bless you too.
Your never to old to learn thank you for telling us about this I like both great will try these out have a great day
For the flies that aren't afraid of bags of water with foil balls...
Take any container that holds liquid that you don't mind throwing away after it fills up with dead flies.
Pour your left over pop that you didn't finish into a clear (so you can see the dead flies) plastic cup or bowl etc.
Add a few drops of dish soap to the liquid. The sugary liquid attracts the flies for a drink. The soap breaks the surface tension of the liquid so when the flies come for a drink, they can't land on it without being trapped in it and drowning.
Works for hornets too.
When the container gets full of dead flies, throw the whole thing out and start over.
This isn't going to create a fly free zone. It's just gonna kill a bunch of them and reduce the population.
Every female fly that drowns equals hundreds of flies not being born.
To stop the hornets, you will have to follow them to their nest and destroy it.
The sweet water and soap will only kill some of them.
Best fly killer is dairy barn spray. Spray some on your door frame and screen. That repels them for awhile. Follow safety directions on can.
Best prevention is to eliminate any manure or other animal feces, dead animals, etc, that they lay their eggs on.
Even cat shit will attract them. Get rid of anything that smells bad. Cuz that's what smells good to a fly.
Try to control the incoming flies when spring comes. If they breed, you will have tens of thousands more.
All they need is I little pile of your pets shit, or a dead mouse, and they can lay thousands of eggs on it.
Keep your living zone as clean as possible.
I prefer to use dor and window net , i dont like bowls with drowning insects...
Also, be careful with the "barn spray". In our country we dont get to buy the most effective ones,because they content stuff that hurt nature . And it hurt the bees,because of the sideeffect on plants . It can affect the water as well. That kind of chemichal should be avoided.
Btw,i never kill spiders. They are very welcome in my house . They eat mites, flies and insect one dont want.
Be also careful with fruit ,to avvoid fruitflies.
And plese dont kill a bee! We need them all . Every single one of them.
Definitely going to try your suggestions
Hi any tips for mosquito?
Any tips for lizards?
@kent neumann!!
😎😎 All sounds Excellent advice thanks!! 👍👍
*_I see this being done at our food stalls in Singapore but without the aluminium foil. It worked as well :)_*
Extremely useful. Thank you.
I had seen the water bags in New Orleans 15 years ago. I asked my coworker, a New Orleans native "What's up with the bags." They were hanging on the outside of a restaurant that had sidewalk dining. He told me that it scares the flies away..... As for the vacuum sealed carrots, this is how i marinate meats. The vacuum seal allows for the flavors of the marinade to be better absorbed by the meat.
Thank you for the tips … maybe I’m the only one but … being that I have to read all of your videos … I have a hard time seeing the script with the font in white and the background is white … just my thought… but remember … you have great tips
Pretty cool. Thanks for showing how to get rid of flies. Thanks for the vegetable storage trick as well. Have a wonderful day "Simple & Fast"
the second tip was really amazing. Thanks.
Creating a near vacuum seal using water pressure is my favorite. It's so low tech but achieves the same thing as sealers.
The sounds are so satisfying to me.
I enjoyed the sound
Thankyou from Australia 😊👍🐨🇦🇺💖
AMAZING...THANKS FOR SHARING
If this worked for carpenter bees also it would be wonderful ! Thanks
Wow, both these actually work! Love using the baggie for food!
New Sub here, we will be trying the foil, water & plastic bag . Thanks for the tip! Wishing you Health and Happiness from CT 🇺🇲 ✌🏼
Hello from Guam 🇬🇺
That vegetable one is so SMART!!! The other one would be awesome too, I hope it really works! Thanks for sharing! God bless you.
Pure genius and I know this will work because of the peculiar nature of flies vision it completely throws them. Such a good idea and then the one to expell air from a zip bag of veg is really clever too as i thought you had to suck out the air with a drinking straw but the water does the same job - so well thought out. Greetings from SW England.

Hello I'm in Uganda.please can it chase away mosquitoes
Keep your fruits and vegetables and glass containers. They will last so much longer my strawberries last three weeks ps Celery, wrapped in aluminum foil will last forever in your refrigerator
Glass containers yes, but to cook or wrap any of your food in aluminium foil?..NEVER!
Aluminum is the only metal that isn’t naturally found in the human body (for instance, it serves as no beneficial purpose like iron would). But if you cook with it, wrap your food in it, or even use aluminum cookware or flatware, it can get into your body. It can cause Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, kidney disease, or all kinds of issues.
Be careful. Scientists use aluminum to help deliver vaccines through your body.
Aluminum is also found in grooming products such as deodorant.
Canning jars work great for keeping Romaine fresh for 3 weeks, as well as lunch salafs.
Thanks going to try this! Marie, South Africa
From America... I really need all the tips I can get. Thank you much !!!
Celery and spring onions keep growing after you've cut them if placed in a bag, in the fridge. Just need to twist the end of the bag. No elastic bands required, and just cover the ends of the celery with a bag. Hey presto.
Cheap and affordable . Great tips

@@clarkclarke not everyone can. Not everyone gets what they call the “tingles” ASMR has been a miracle worker for me. I stopped taking sleep meds all together because of it.

Nice. Wish it did something for me.
ASMR? What language is this? People who speak in incomprehensible acronyms shoud STHU
The second one was unexpected and I’m going to try it see if it makes a difference because this is a real problem-food going yuk. I must admit- i can’t really believe the fly -repellent one!! But - you would likely not put it up if it wasn’t good . Just never heard of it. And it seems so strange! I will try it out camping.-will tie it to a tree right beside us in our camp and see what happens. Here in Australia, we have lots of flies.. See what happens . Thank you.
