they didn’t do it right so it didn’t work...

What did they do wrong? How do you do it right?

They kinda like twisted the plastic at the top. You need to use a zip lock sandwich size plastic bag, fill it almost full of water. Then use tacks 3 to 4 to secure it at the top. You’ve also got to place these bags from an area that hangs free [not against a wall]. Makes sense?

Sounds like a great bb gun target

I imagine a .223 would make quite a splash. And, take out a few flies in the process.

Im afraid this method of water in ziplock bag did not work for me. I have two bags of water outside and there are still a bunch of flies around. Dont know why they like to hang out right under my carport near my door. I just saw a bunch of little flies recently in addition to the regular big fat ones so it appears that there was a recent birth. Yuk.
