Homer's sources of temptation (6)

I believe the answer is:

sirens

(Other definitions for sirens that I've seen before include "Alarm whistles or temptresses of sailors" , "Sea nymphs" , "Alluring women" , "Warning devices with loud wailing noise" , "Loud wailing warnings sounds" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
