Comment on Why do bugs drown themselves, what idiocy is this?!

Flying bugs often can’t fly when their wings are wet. They go in for a drink, get wet, then can’t get out. If there were some dirt on the edge, they could swim out and get off, but a glass isn’t made of dirt.

Wine and sweet drinks are even worse, because the bugs are attracted to the scent.
