Fun and Practical
By Joe in Schaumburg, Illinois on 05/27/2013
I bought the Bug-A-Salt gun along with other things in my order. The idea to have a gun which will knock down bugs from 3 feet away was entriguing. I have long gone through the ritual of taking a towe…

Fun
By Vince in Parkville, MO on 12/23/2012
Bug-A-Salt has never made fly and insect control more fun. Not only will it eviscerate flies from a good distance, but any other insect or unwanted spiders in the house without harming the surface beh…

Bug-A-Salt Fly & Bug Salt
By Domenick in Pompano Beach, Florida on 01/08/2015
Stinks, doesn't kill anything, not small lizards, or moths. Doesn't shoot any salt unless you cock it and shake it...Do they really expect a fly or bug to pose for you to get close enough to shoot it.…

Be sure to test fire for a good pattern.
By Cole in Cedar Falls on 10/31/2013
Mine shoots low, but once I compensate for that it's great. I've even taken a flying wasp down from 3 ft. It won't kill them, but it will shred their wings so you can finish them off easier. Much bett…

Beats a rolled up newspaper every time. I love this thing. Would like smaller size but it feels solid, works very well. I'm going to buy another. Bravo!
Not as lethal as I had hoped
By Mark in SHANDON on 12/01/2014
This thing is pretty cool, it destroys gnats, fruit flies, small moths, etc. It knocks any size fly off whatever it's sitting on, but the larger flies often just fly away after the first hit, sometime…
