Has anyone seen this commercial? Apparently you load the air powered gun with table salt and spray everyything you own with salt to get rid of flies. Not exactly sure why this is efficient or why anyone would need it but who knows

Bizarre Commercial

Looks kind of fun actually. I wonder if it'll kill wasps.

Looks like a good way to lose an eye

its been around for years.

I agree salt is stupid but play sand is just as good and less harmful.

these things can be fun at the camp or to clear out pests like carpenter bees or wasps at a distance.

its a toy to have fun with and yes its even a good tool to have if you don't want to chase flies around with a swatter

I get all of that, but it just seemed odd that they focused on spraying all their food with salt to show how it works

If you don't like it don't buy yourself one it's that simple

Well the idea is you can use it around the backyard BBQ and it is safe for food.

And I don't plan on it, just thought it was a funny commercial and wanted to share. Thanks for stopping by though

Well, they work really well. And by the way I try not to shoot them inside because it does get salt everywhere

I love mine. Wasps sometimes require a double tap.

If a fly is on my plate of fries, I can kill the fly and add some flavor to the fries in one shot. Pretty brilliant invention IMO

Well, huh, might as, might as well ask why is a tree good? Why is the sunset good? Why are boobs good? Man, firecrackers, ya stick 'em in mailboxes, you drop 'em in toilets, shove 'em up bullfrogs asses.

Had mine for 3 or 4 years. I love it. Takes about 10 flies to dial it in then it's money.

Doesn't shoot enough salt to bother anything.

It is completely useless for horseflies however.
