I just returned one of these to Lowe's. All it seemed to do was to stun flies, it didn't kill a single one. It's really fun to use but completely ineffective. I tried plain old, regular table salt as well as courser salt. I REALLY wanted it to work and sat outside for hours hitting flies and, like I said, it was really fun, but it didn't kill anything even with multiple hits on the same fly.

I ended up getting the Black Fly 3.0 with bug beam for $43 on the https://www.bugasalt.com
website. I have a 2.0 and it doesn't have the killing power on even the smallest black house fly's. The 3.0 is supposed to be stronger.
That was with a 25% coupon they offered on the spin the wheel front page.

Finally on sale again!!! These are so much fun. I have the 1st model for about 5yrs now. I kill thousands of flies and bugs every year outside. Wife won't let me shoot in the house cause she doesn't want salt all over the house. I live outside the city near farms and vacant lands so being armed with this is far more effective than the fly swatter. Highly recommended. Sometimes I have to hit the fly 2 times but most of the time, one shot eradicates the fly. It won't kill a wasp with one shot, but if I spray a wasp with adhesive spray and it falls to the ground, this gun will split the body in pieces or squash it's head. Get it Slickdealers!!!!

Not my experience with one I have. It definitely kills them.

This is true, I literally have to be within 2 feet for it to be effective, any further and they get knocked back and just fly away.

I feel like the build quality on these is spotty. I have one and like others have said it doesnt do anything even at point blank. That being said people I know swear by theirs and tell me they have no issue killing the biggest bugs. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can confirm this. I bought one and had some fun with it but it was completely ineffective in killing anything. Returned it and never looked back.
