对死昆虫和活昆虫进行的实验表明，昆虫与不带电的基材表面接触可能会产生电荷。昆虫在基质上行走或飘动时，电荷可能会累积起来。昆虫接触干木头和金属呈阳性，接触石棉呈阴性。它们在摩擦电系列中的位置在石棉或玻璃附近。昆虫的接触充电解释了每次昆虫飞行时在电影响活动装置中发现的静电电位激增。
Experiments with both dead and living insects have shown that insects may acquire an electrical charge as a result of surface contact with an uncharged substrate. The charge on the insect may be built up during walking or fluttering on the substrate. The insects were made positive by contact with dry wood and metals, and negative by contact with asbestos. Their position in the Tribo-electric Series was somewhere near asbestos or glass. Contact charging of the insects explains the electrostatic potential surges found in the electrical-influence activity apparatus with each insect flight.
