Has this ever happened to you? There’s a fly in the house, buzzing around you, so you go to the cabinet to get the swatter. But as soon as you start wielding it, the little bastard disappears. You set it down, and now he’s back, taunting you.
Ok so obviously flies don’t taunt, but do they have the capacity to recognize, even instinctually, that I’m holding a deadly weapon?
As silly as they seem, the anti-fly salt shotguns work super well precisely because you aren’t swinging them wildly around, alerting the flies. You can almost poke them with the barrel tip if you move slow, but the actual shot comes too fast to evade.
excuse me where can i buy an “anti fly salt shotgun” that sounds badass
Your life is about to take a turn for the better, my friend. 😀

Here. I have a few of the “2.0” model at my house and it’s great for bugs which have landed or don’t fly, hitting them in the air is tough.
They have other colors, and apparently now even a CO₂ powered pistol for really big bugs (with proprietary ammo refills, no thanks)
They’re not that great in my experience.
I’ve always been curious about how big a mess the salt gun makes every time you use it.
Lol, is this an ad placement in lemmy? It’s beginning to really become reddit like in here. /s
