During the long winter months, the tiny turtles go into a torpor, eating nothing and barely moving. Their bodies contain a natural antifreeze that enables them to survive for long periods when the temperature in the nest drops below freezing. Here is a revolutionary method of saving money. Remove the central heating from your home, and this winter, program your body to produce antifreeze in the blood Supply. However cold the weather, you'll never feel cold.
Many people wonder where all the flies go in the winter.
Shortly after Succos, they all seem to disappear, and not a one is to be seen throughout the long winter months. Six months later, after Pesach, out they come again. The answer is that during winter, flies will hibernate, sometimes in large groups, in any available dry and warm space such as an attic. They are fast asleep and out of sight. The reason there are so few houseflies in winter is that their eggs will hatch only at temperatures between 75 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit.
