I KILL DEM FLIES!:mad:

And the best way is by rubber band!:D
I am quite good at it.

Not very amazing really, a low angle shot from 1 to 3 feet nearly always takes them out. Not in flight.:rolleyes:
 
Then I make hats out of their pelts!

MUyahhahahahahahahah! *ack*

and also EWWWWW!!!
 
Got this cool toy from China. It's an electric fly-swatter. It looks like a short badminton racket and uses two AA batteries. The face is a grid of two parallel large-mesh screens, about a quarter inch apart, oppositely charged.

When you swing it at a fly, he passes through the first mesh into the charged zone in between where he shorts it out and is zapped. It's amazingly effective, and a fucking brilliant idea.

Someone should have thought of this long ago.
 
No fly problem here, they love the compost bins, lay there eggs, then the little pupae eat the vegetable scraps turning it into rich compost,

it doesn't smell, and I haven't purchased any whiz bang crap from China, and my seedlings love it!

Why do you want to kill the flies anyway?
 
I have a herd of chameleons and toads to handle my flies. We have a symbiotic relationship (it might even become a new story category: EROTIC SYMBIOTIC COUPLING).

I kill the flies that fly around and bug me.
If they don't, they live.

One yesterday, another today.

I just got rid of a hoard of gnats (that's the official description for a group of gnats, right? ;)) - my trick: an inch of cider vinegar in a bowl and a tsp of dishsoap. Mix and put one in the kitchen and one in the bathroom. The gnats are attracted to the vinegar, fall in, and die. I had fifty little gnat corpses by nightfall. So gross... but so very satisfying! :D

I know a man who uses one on his sub.
 
Through the screen door. The kids poked lil holes in it, and the flies just walked right through.

Used to watch flies just drop dead when we put pressure in the boat. a 2 psi change was great at fly killing. :D
