    Has anyone ever used one

    They're fanf*ckingtastic! If there's ever a fly that annoys you, especially one of the big dirty arsed bluebottles, use this mofo on them and it will sizzle the living shíte out of them. You get a good crack and a flash and a tremendous feeling of self satisfaction.

    And it's not cruel, whats cruel is the persistent buzzing that puts them in that situtation. Anyways, I always feed them to the spiders afterwards, circle of life etc

    Love the write-up!
    About Electric Fly Swatter:

    The earliest sample of Electric fly swatters is originated in China in 1988. After its improvement and development for several years, Electric fly Swatter is popular all over the world with its perfect shape and high effect in killing the mosquitoes.
    Electric Fly Swatter is an insect killer which is specially aimed at mosquitoes and flies and made good use of the DC-DC elements diploid compress theory of electron circuit. It upgrades and transforms the 3V direct current (DC) to 1500 Volts direct current (DC). This kind of voltage could only kill the mosquitoes and flies and have no hurt to the human being.

     We have a history of making Electric fly Swatter for 12 years.
    Surly, just hitting it with the swatter stuns(splat!) them, or is this chinese torture, fry them just to be sure!

    If anyone is looking for one of these I saw them only 2 weeks ago in that cr@ppy shop in the Pavilions that used to be Tom Stanleys and has now been re-named to something else....

    Maybe its a 2 euro shop, opposite HMV....

    Its the old rolled up newspaper way for me, some people just wont embrace technology.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    Yep, have one here beside me. They are great craic. I don't normally like killing things but flies I make an exception for, irritating little feckers. And the noise is so satisfying.

    I wholeheartedly endorse this product.

    I usually choke them with my spray deodorant to disorientate them, then I give them the newspaper treatment..

    I tried the Raid approach but they'll usually just go off and hide somewhere that you can't get to them, then you'll have to listen to them buzzing around in distress until they finally snuff out.. quite unpleasant..

    On the occasion that I've decided to be lenient and open the window nice and wide for them to leave, they usually just hover around the opening or smack off it a few times before flying back inside.. to their peril :cool:

    do they kill them as they fly or do you have to hit them when they are on the ground, window, book, partners face?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Can you use them on people who walk slowly in the middle of the footpath?

    Cause that'd be handy.

    An investment in a Cattle Prod may work wonders for that particular grievance.

    Anyone know where in Dublin city centre you can get one? The light in the living room constantly has it's own solar system of flies, and I hate using sprays cos I want to feed the bodies to my carnivorous plants.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,239 ✭✭✭✭WindSock


    Try one of those DIY stores.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3 garethcnmjones

    You can get a cheaper one from there...

    Do you sell electric ban sticks?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,930 ✭✭✭Raiser


    Hi I recently bought one (Shannon Town Shopping Centre, hardware Shop - €6.50) and the one thing the greatness involved made me realise was that it would be brilliant to have a good one for the kitchen wall - ie. mounted over kitchen cupboards or somewhere.

    - Anyone recommend one that works well? Theres lot out there and some have really poor reviews.

    Just killed a little fecker in my room today with a puzzle book. Felt great just after it happened and then i suddenly felt guilty. I did try and get it out the window but the bloody thing wouldnt go out.

    What am I like at all.:rolleyes:

    Just on that.A thought occurred to me about sudoku.

    If there were say 15 or 20 sudoku puzzles but you repeated them over and over 10 times in a book,would the puzzler catch on?

    How miffed would you be if you found out that they were doing that?

    How miffed would you be if you completed the original puzzle near the start but failed on the duplicate?:pac:

    Hope that makes sense.

    Oh,yeah I HATE flies too but they are an intrinsic part of the cycle of life process.Its the fat bstard blue bottles that make me retch and quickly squidged into oblivion:mad:

    I prefer to microwave the feckers instead. Statistically an annoying fly going around to every corner of the kitchen will find the open microwave door within a minute


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,262 ✭✭✭✭Joey the lips


    Just becareful exploding flys can send germs around an enclosed room.

    But yes they are great and its very important you should follow the instructions and keep them away from people and animals.

    Unless this microwave is for the exclusive use of nuking flyin things,I cannot agree.

    The thought of buzz buzz disintegrating and his dog poo covered feet and his fat body of baby buzzes being smattered inside the vessel which I use to heat up my baked beans is hard to take.

    Nothing beats the satisfaction of a direct hit with either a newspaper or an old-fashioned fly-swatter!

    When ya get him in mid air and he just drops straight to the floor dead.

    Also what's the last thing that goes through a fly's head when he hits the car windscreen? His arse.

    LOL for a number of reasons:pac:

    What's the reason for being reasonable?

    Is that an unreasonable question?
