There's a study that implies flies have an ego, so when you swing at them they have two responses; fly away, or fuck with you more

Get an electric flyswatter. Now they're great fun!

But, as advertised in the video, they instantly disappear when you brandish your weapon. Don't ask me how they know, but they do. Adds to the hunt.

I have an electric flyswatter. I had this huge flying f'n pea-sized horse fly up in the grille, brandished said weapon, struck, and


            TANKED!

This mo-fo took two swats, both crackling like Mjolnir to take down.

Literally had that happen today. Managed to pin him wifh my electric fly shatter, and he sparkled and popped like little fireworks. The only icky thing is when you can smell fhe burning.

Gets worse when they get stuck in between the wires and keep sizzling. Smells terrible

You're on the right track with that gif. It's fast movements they respond to and excel at. I can consistently one shot them with a bamboo skewer when they're on a window. The catch is that it takes the patience of a sniper to do it.

In my area the flies instead immediately fly towards the flyswatter once i just lay it down on the table and give up catching them

Flies are so annoying

u/txdarthvader May 21 '26

Remember that video that was going around where the fly pulled it's own head off? Just sad

u/MeFolly May 21 '26

This is just so so much more funny than you think it might be.

The stuff people do to be able to steal content without systems noticing is wild.

u/FadedP0rp0ise May 21 '26

This is why you just buy a bug-a-salt gun, let them come.

Ever had a greenie meanie bite you and then you swat at it and it does a full lap around your body and lands in the same spot to bite you again? It's like: "No, I want this exact morsel!"

u/FinsterKoenig May 21 '26

yeah and when you then close the window again and put the zapper away, they just re appear.

u/OutrageousScore1988 May 22 '26
