Wasps, flies, and gnats. We spray well enough to not need to deal with mosquitos but I hate gnats so much more. They aren't as satisfying to kill because its a mindless swarm of 2000 insects in your eyeballs, ears, nose, and any open wound, but I despise gnats. Putrid creatures from the lower circles of hell.

Back in my day we made pipe bombs out of metal pipes, but had the sense to do it far from humanity (and did not drop it in the water and fish the Tennessee way).

Yeah, but kids were also more responsible

We did too...even though its been 47 years I was scared to post it.
The ATF is always watching. Lol
My favorite was picking up spent 50 cal Browning or 20mm shells from the gun show, filling with FFFG powder, inserting a cannon fuse then crimping over the neck.
They had the power of a stick of dynamite.
Everyday I'm amazed that I still have all my digits.

I use a pool leaf skimmer on an 10ft pole like a lacrosse stick for carpenter bees and I love stepping on mole crickets. They sound like an exploding bubble wrap when you step on them.

A few:

1) carpenter bees @ the camp, have burrowed a hole in 2x4 and light their arse up with a Bic lighter as they try to sleep in their burrow - college days
2) Lizards - duct tape to concrete and burn hole in head with a magnifying glass - 10-12 y/o
3) gold tops (miller lite) - since of age

Yes Sir, spend the extra and get the CO2 Revolver. It’s more expensive to use but the satisfaction is worth it imo.

I did that too. That satisfying PING. They love to get in your face and get loud to scare you but they can't do anything. After a few get popped across the yard, they figure out the scare tactic isn't working and they all run away for a few hours. Pretty interesting grasp of the situation for insects. I wouldn't be mean but they destroy the porch so it is what it is.
