FACT IS YOU DO NOT HAVE TO PILE SALT ON THE FLY IT WILL COME BACK ANYWAYS PROVEN FACT my brother, Robert Morley has been experimenting with this and by accident he found this out by pouring out a cup of coffee that had a fly in it into the sink and saw it com back to life a little while later - flying 15-20 Min's later- my brother believes that it was revived by the stainless steel stating that it draws water - I think this could be true but kinda think the fly will come back to life anyways he said he is going to do a test to see with the salt -without the salt -and in the stainless steel sink and i think he also said on a paper towel but that's a lot of fly drowning- I wonder if he will group drown them or one by one hahaha that's sick
Still it's clever saying he isn't a scientist or anything!

Like Crocodiles, Alligators have salt glands. However, unlike crocodiles, these are not active, and so the alligator can perhaps only stay in salt water for a few hours at the MOST. Crocodiles are more adapted to life in the ocean than alligators, because their salt glands work :)

Can drowning flies come back to life from salt?
Yes they can. Bugs don't drown the same way we do. It doesn't get in their longues, their bodies absorb the water. When you pour salt on the bug it extracts the water that was absorbed and it comes back to life. It will only work if the bug drowned recently though. It can't be a bug that drowned a week or so ago.
Why is it that salt can kill slugs when sprinkled on them but will make alive a dead fly when sprinkled upon one?
Salt cannot bring a fly back to life, it kills slugs because salt absorbs the water and dries them up. Salt cannot bring a fly back to life. It can revive it from a sleep which naturally occurs when the fly is faced with overwhelming pain though. Salt has certain properties which makes it draw moisture from things around it. As a slug has a very high percentage of water in its body, it is easy for salt to draw the water from the slug, causing its osmolarity rate to slow and it will become severly dehydrated and shrivel up, a waterless shell.
