Bug-A-Salt - The Original Salt Gun


Lorenzo Maggiore invented the 'Bug-a-Salt', a fly shotgun which uses nothing more than common table-salt to blast those pesky creatures into the next life.

Using salt for the water-pistol-like weapon means the gun is effectively harmless against people - even a plastic bag survives a close-up blast. But for flies, the attack is deadly.

But of course, if you throw salt around in your house, everything will become damp. Try to aim it away from electronics, and metals,or you'll see corrosion and early failure. Even sand would be kinder to your home.

Why did he have to go all the way to China to have this thing made? He could have done it right here in the good old USA. I bet they don't let him that that shooter on a Plane! Its a weapon of mass destruction.
