WHILE the sunshine and warm weather is a welcome change to those dark and dreary winter days, it doesn’t come without its own issues.
And one of the top problems is flies and bees.
Luckily, one woman has figured out an easy way to keep them both out and all you need is a few pennies and a plastic sandwich bag.
Taking to her social media account, she explained: “This is a hack that I saw last year and it really helped with the flies and the bees that we get in our house.
“We live next to a river so we get quite a few.”
As she spoke, Alexandra took out two sandwich bags and placed two pennies in each one before filling it with water.

“You pop the pennies, however many you want, in the sandwich bag and half fill the sandwich bag with water,” she continued.
Once sealed, she instructed viewers to tie it at an entrance to the house, including curtain poles, so that it hangs down.
“Flies won’t come in because they think it’s a wasp's nest,” she explained.
In the caption, TikTok user @alexandrasolera added: “Keeping flies and bees out of your house”.

People were quick to comment on the clip as one person wrote: “I’m thinking this ain’t gonna work, but I’ll try it,” to which she replied: “You might get the odd one in but it does reduce it x”.
Another sceptical person shared: “No flies or bees but more wasps, great,” followed by two crying with laughter emojis.
Alexandra hit back: “Wasps are territorial and will usually not build their nest near another wasp nest. So won’t be going near it,” alongside a thumbs up emoji.
But others were all for it as one shared: “Deffo worth a try x,” while another said: “I do this and it does work. Have to hang them in every window though.!
“We do this in Mexico,” another revealed, while one said: “My niece has done that! She said it works!” with a thumbs up emoji.
