How do these things work? Are they DIYable?
Make an air rifle. Put salt in it. Done.
I took a shitty airsoft gun and used it like one of those. All you have to do is make a wad out of some paper towel or someshit and shove it down the barrel before the salt, and another one after if you don't want it to fall out. Or just make the wads and salt as one cartridge. Worked on wasps.

I'd rather use a fly swatter and not have fucking salt all over my house.

So much this. Salt all over the place is a fucking disaster. Sand is less of an oxidation problem but it doesn't go away like salt can, so you have to clean it up

>that video
I see, that gun is lacking one extremely important feature: a small fast video camera, coupled to a recorder and a monitor. When you pull the trigger, it records a half-second long video, which then loops on the monitor. The clips are stored to an on-board usb stick and you can later transfer them to your computer.

How do they keep salt from falling out in the original version? It says you can take multiple shots without refilling.

There's a reservoir on top that you refill. I assume it's gravity fed and loads the right amount into the chamber when you cock it.
all these faggots that have never caught a fly with your bare hands, you will never know the glory that speed can bring

Daniel-san, you beginner luck!

The best way to learn how something work is to take it apart.
If that isn't possible try and track down exploded diagram, patents and part list.
I have one of these, mostly for entertainment. Pretty disappointing, you have to sneak right up close to the fly, like a couple of inches.

I'm too stingy to buy one unless they're REALLY useful or fun.

They're hella fun.
And to everyone bitching about salt everywhere just use it outside. Great fun while camping!
