Pennies in a plastic bag with water

Total bullshite. I was up in Eureka Springs several times in the early fall for several motorcycle rallies over the years and each year the flies up there were out of control that time of year.

The motel/restaurant/campsite I stayed at had these bags with pennies all over the place and the only thing they did was keep the pennies wet as the flies swarmed drinks and food belonging to anyone sitting outside.
