Take it camping or use it at home, the nifty gadget operates anywhere, using ordinary table salt as ammunition to knock down pesky bugs.
It functions like a miniature shotgun, propelling a pinch of salt with a burst of air to instantly dispatch flies, mosquitoes, and other flying creatures.
Loved by TV comedy duo Hamish and Andy, it not only provides an eco-friendly alternative to traditional insecticides, meaning it’s safe to use around food, but it adds endless fun for users.
“I cannot wait to take this home tonight and take my son on his first hunting trip,” Hamish Blake says during a podcast, while his co-host Andy Lee brandishes the most recent Bug-a-Salt 3.0 model.
“It is very well made. Often things online are very disappointing,” says Andy.
“This is robust.”
After trying it out, the lads are both completely sold.
Reviewers of the Bug-a-Salt, which is available on Amazon, are wowed by the gadget too, and it gets thousands of five-star reviews from users all over the world.
“We’ve had an absolute blast with the Bug-a-Salt in our household!” said one.
“This ingenious gadget has turned fly elimination into a daily competition that’s both effective and entertaining.”
“Before I was looking for a cushion, a tea towel, to eliminate flies, gnats, wasps... now there is this weapon!” said another.
“Goodbye gnats! Goodbye wasps at lunch! It is effective and does not leave marks. I recommend 100 per cent. Ideal gift by the way for all lovers of quiet lunches!”
Customers are also impressed by how simple it is.
“It’s easy to use, and it’s a much more eco-friendly and chemical-free alternative to traditional fly sprays,” said one happy customer.
“The salt shots are quick and accurate, making it easier to hit those agile flies mid-flight.”
The Bug-a-Salt 3.0 can be disabled when not in use.
But the company still advises owners to “keep away from children, pets and idiots”.
