The email stated that if you take a baggie fill it halfway with water and put four pennies in it, it was prevent flies from crossing over it.
I called her immediately as told her that there was a deli up here that had this on the top of their doors. I had asked the girl at the counter why it was there. She said it stops flies from coming into the deli. "Right" I thought. Well, when this email crossed my path, I said "what the heck" and tried it.
Does it work? Let's put it this way, before I would have A LOT of flies in my house, especially when I had horses, that was really bad. Now I may have one or two in my house and that may be from another door being open and they will come in that way.
People ask "What the...." I tell them I am trying something different and their response is why don't you get a screen door? That would be way too easy.
Here is a picture of it, I would recommend it especially if you have flies bad, at that point, I would of tried anything!

Ha,ha! I told you it would work!!
I haven't had a bee in here and so far not flies. Mine did fall down, you should have heard the flop!! No splat, just flop. No water it only had a small hole. The dogs didn't know what that was, I did put it up again and later it fell again, so it is an on going saga. I will continue it because it does work!!!!Bobbie
I DID THIS TOO!! And it does work. I hung one on the screen door handle (outside) and I clipped two baggies on our clothesline close to our outside table. It really did lessen the flies. Amazing!
Good to stop by and say "hey" to ya girl... thanks for all your wonderful comments, and my apologies for being so danged busy this summer and not responding very much. *hanging head in shame*
