Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 This works in our barn and it's very easy to do! Take a gallon zip loc bag and fill it halfway with water. On one corner of the zip part, tie a piece of string and then hang the bags around your barn. From what I've been told, the flies think the water bags are spider webs and stay away. We don't have a fly problem anymore and we have sheep, goats and a horse! I saw this at an outdoor restaurant about 8 years ago. I asked them why they had the water bags hanging all around and he said it kept the flies away! Sure enough we were able to eat our food in piece and did not have one fly land on our table. I live in Texas where it's almost always hot and humid and flies are aplenty!! It's pretty funny when people come see our animals and ask what they bags are for. After I tell them, they realize there really aren't any flies around!! Every once in awhile we may see on in the barn, but it's not like it was before!
