Joseph Norris+FollowWhy are there fruit flies coming out of my outlet? 😵💫For the last couple of days, I've seen fruit flies coming out of my electrical outlet. There's no old fruit in the kitchen or anything else nearby. I swear the only thing I've plugged in there is my Apple charger. #PestControl #WeirdProblems #AskForHelp #HomeRepair #DIYFail #FruitFlies #HelpNeeded #Infestation #LifeHacks #HelpNeeded 4354Share
Kevin Rodriguez+FollowFruit Flies on Cocaine?! Science Gets WildScientists are literally giving cocaine to fruit flies to crack the code on addiction—because these tiny bugs share 75% of our disease genes! Turns out, flies hate cocaine (they taste it as bitter), but when researchers silenced their bitter taste sensors, the flies started to go for the drug-laced sugar water. This wild experiment could help scientists find new ways to treat addiction in humans. Who knew fruit flies could be so relatable? #ScienceNews #AddictionResearch #FruitFlies #Health276Share
