The Science Behind Zebra Print

  • Reflects UV light, confusing insect vision
  • Breaks up outline, deterring landing
  • Study shows 70% fewer landings on striped surfaces
  • Polarized light patterns disrupt fly navigation
  • Movement creates optical illusions that repel insects

Recent Scientific Evidence

A 2022 study published in Nature Scientific Reports demonstrated that zebra stripes significantly reduce biting fly attacks through multiple mechanisms including disruption of polarized light patterns and optical flow disturbance. The research showed that striped patterns create visual confusion for insects during their landing approach, effectively reducing successful landings by up to 70%.
