The bags should never be placed inside the house or restaurant. It’s won’t repel the flies. They should always be placed outside the door, garage or drive-thru window…then it works! The restaurant in town tried them inside…duh…the flies came right in…the trick is to repel them before they ENTER…My mom has used them for years and NO FLIES…we moved to the same city/area a few months ago and we have flies everywhere! Myth? I don’t think so!! By the way, the dairy farmers around here swear by them ever since my dad told them how to do it years ago…and they have PLENTY of flies on the dairy farms here in Texas!

Yes it’s a shame we have to conclude our tests early. There is so much more research required. As far as the currency issue…I’m thinking the flies around here have no cents! Sorry…couldn’t resist. Wizzer if you’ll send me several bags of pence, I’ll submit a new series of tests this Spring. What do you think?

I wish they would feature this on one of their T.V. versions. Thanks for the tips for bees, after this test of ours I may try 409 on those flies!!

Definitely a candidate for mythbusters! If you have a problem with bees, get a bottle of Formula 409 and have it handy. It kills bees instantly. Don’t know if it works for flies, but works great on bees.

I’m looking forward to seeing this on TVs Mythbusters now.

Clearly there’s much more to this than meets the eye.

Does the currency of the coins matter – do US flies only react to cents where UK flies hate pence?

I think there is so much more research required before we can know for sure. Shame winter is approaching
