The Silva family matriarch took to the family’s TikTok page to share the clever hack, as she explained: “One thing about flies is that they can’t see color. white.
“All you have to do is put a white paper towel in the palm of your hand, slowly approach the fly, and grab it.
“Try it yourself!”
” Oh my God ! You mean I wasted my time walking around the house? one person commented on the video.
While another asked: “So why the hell did they make red, yellow, orange or pink fly swatters?”
“Dazzling,” wrote a third, to which the mum replied, “David kept swearing it worked and it still works.”
“I’ll give it a try next time I see a fly,” someone else added.
Another person insisted it had nothing to do with the color of the paper towel but with the speed at which the hand moves, writing: “They can’t feel the slow movements.
“So what I mean is you just need to use your hand.”
“I think it’s more the speed than the color but I could be wrong,” another wrote.
“Flies have hair that senses the wind created by quick attacks, so they fly away.”
“Brother found a loophole,” someone else said.
