I somehow got flies in the house. I noticed them last night. I got out the flyswatter and of course the flies disappeared. So I kept the flyswatter handy till I went to bed. Works like a charm!

I'm not even a neat freak but that's always been my question when I see one of those videos.
I mean, if it's outside, it should be OK for the fly to be there. It's only when they're inside (and especially when they are dive bombing me) that I feel the need to murder them. I always try to chase them to and out of a window as my first choice but I have the murder option down to a science if that's what is required.

It shoots such a very small amount, you'll never see it in your carpet.
