People thought this guy was a goofball. Now, he's goofballing all the way to the bank. I don't know how many of these have sold, but it has to be in excess of a million units by now, probably far more. At $40 per, that's a minimum of $40 million in sales. This is proof, you don't have to be a genius with years of college under your belt to have an idea that sells. More power to him!
Just got mine today and I guess I'm more violent than I thought because after having houseflies bug me (no pun intended) for 3 days, shooting them down is WAY too cathartic.. 😂😂 thanks for a great product!
Either the revolver type one but I can't remember the name, has more fire power as its powered by co2 canisters. or the lawn and garden 2.0 which used a higher quality of salt and has a bit more power
this thing actually works great. i just wiped out about 20 flies with it. Easier than a fly swatter actually since they don't have to be on a hard flat surface to take them out.
have to ask, does it really Kill the flies or just stuns them?coz at the part nearing the end of the video, he shot the fly above the wall but after picked it up and placed it on the poster and it was still moving.
AngelGhost2k9 my buddy has one. Sometimes it blows them to bits; other times they just are dead. Flies it always kills, assuming you don't miss. He says it doesn't kill wasps usually, but it knocks em down so you can just stomp em.
Lorenzo you need to bring these to Ace Hardware stores. Theres one in the next town over from me. Formerly a Tillson's true value hardware. I'm going to get two of these. I'll use this along with my electric zappers. Shoot em with the bug-a-salt and fry em with the zapper.
Am I doing something wrong? When I pump it, the little orange plug doesn't depress to let the salt into the barrel. Therefore, I'm only shooting air, which unfortunately isn't lethal to flies or much else for that matter. Fly season opened up here and I'm itching for some trophies!

I just purchased the black version and so far I'm very impressed with it.i can picture people in groups fighting a war against all evil flying insects! ~•~ 💥🔫
I do wish it used more salt per shot & w a bigger spread. I want to be able to kill bigger bugs at bigger ranges without needing to be pinpoint accurate. Ive heard that mustard seed has a wider spray & doesn't clog the gun? Also heard about someone drilling a bigger bore on the orange nozzle to help w the spray? Lol I literally want to be able to use this outside against bugs that are.... bugging me while going out for a cig at night. During the summer in the country they are every freaking where! Whether it be beetles, mosquitos, etc, I want to deal w the ones who dare come close... 😅
Good review. You want it to go viral? Redo it facetiously in full chamo gear, talk about how you are going for very dangerous prey. (True, the spread hepatitis) Study reviews of high powered rifles and shotguns and then tie it up with a proud display of all the deadly prey you have taken down and now have mounted on the wall. (Pan to all the trophies you have mounted with pins on a white cork board) And sell em to restaurants where flies and annoying pests, loan em out to customers who would be delighted to take care of such minor details.

By far, one of the best commercials ever
"Turns annoyance into fun"
What a great slogan!
It is
Why didn't they name their product the A Salt Rifle?
What is a rifle?
A gun with a grooved barrel? It would still work for catchy name purposes.
What is a salt?
Your Sexualized Grandparents it is a play on assault rifle
Because it’s not a rifle, it’s a shotgun
What is the best brand of salt for accuracy and FPS?

😂@@tismute
I just dropped 40 on this at an ace hardware. Good to see it going to an independent producer. Be kind and empathetic with your fortune.

that snapping sound ...oooh
Will it kill paper wasps?
What version do you recommend to kill large grasshoppers with,and what salt is best for humid weather ?
Either the revolver type one but I can't remember the name, has more fire power as its powered by co2 canisters. or the lawn and garden 2.0 which used a higher quality of salt and has a bit more power
this thing actually works great. i just wiped out about 20 flies with it. Easier than a fly swatter actually since they don't have to be on a hard flat surface to take them out.
Yeah,and if your a good shot they don’t even need to be on a surface at all.
Is it good for wasps?
will this work with kosher tablesalt?
Only if the flies are Jewish
Now that is one poster I would definitely use for target practice.😎
Having trouble filling my salt gun. I flipped the rectangle piece up but there is an orange plug in the way. 😞
Does it work on Wasps?
eh i mean you can try but....
i can use it on mosquitos right? i haven’t slept right in a week
Yes you can! We recommend the bug-beam laser attachment for mosquitos. It makes it easier to hit them.

they sometimes kick around for a while and that's fun too

There was a massive black nuclear war surviving cockroach in my house the other day and it killed that. Took a few hits but it did die.
Just got mine, let the fun begin.
finally a good review showing a man killing real bugs with it

@@BUGASALT Actually, I think I figured out what I was doing wrong. It's working now. Thanks for the quick reply!
@@joeobermeyer3788 Glad to hear that, bud! Happy Hunting!
Thanks I was doing it wrong by putting the nozzle too close, (4-6 inches) to the fruit fly
Does the salt penetrate the bug's body like bird shot, or is it like punching them in the face with salt?
Hey dude I made one with a BB gun and yeah it just sprays salt on the fly which instantly kills it
For them its probaly like getting hit by a high velocity stone or something like that.
Can these hit small insects such as fruit flies? I have these in my apartment sometimes and want a fun and entertaining way to kill them.
Sounds like something Joseph would do
I just blasted one yesterday
Yes, use this wonderful device to send them to the gulags.
Show this to Father Garcia
He can defeat spiders and flies and cockroaches and some more
just bought mine and im having way too much fun with this. all those spiders crouched in corners dont stand a chance
Can’t open the salt container, seems stuck
why the trigger is so hard thou, i have one, kills my index finger every time i press trigger cause its hard, wish it was less hard
My dad's bored.
Just hooked him up with this😂 he's having fun!
Just not enough flies around😢
How to buy this bug a salt guns 🤔🤨
I just purchased the black version and so far I'm very impressed with it.i can picture people in groups fighting a war against all evil flying insects! ~•~ 💥🔫
I would like a full auto version with a HPA canister like a paintball gun. 🙂
Love the music!
How to kill a Radroach
I just love my Bug-A-Salt! Musca domestica fear me...
I’m wondering how big a grain of salt is to big ???
We recommend just normal table salt.
"The only good bug is a dead bug!"
nothing on amazone France
Will it kill roaches instantly? I have a severe fear of bugs and am looking for something to kill roaches from a far.
It’s made for flies
What will happen if you shoot it at a window
Nothing this gun is weak but deadly to flys
I do wish it used more salt per shot & w a bigger spread. I want to be able to kill bigger bugs at bigger ranges without needing to be pinpoint accurate.

Should we shoot a fly off the Beav? Always 😂
My daughter got me a Bug a Salt and i wouldn't take a thousand bucks for it if i couldnt get another one.
lol the flies went flying
Will this work to frighten off birds?I have irritating songbirds I want gone, rather not kill them...
Get a shotgun. It doesn’t kill them it just puts them in an endless sleep.
Birds singing irritate you, are you death metal fan
@@freedomisfromtruth I am...
@@RjBenjamin353 cant fire one in city limits
Amazing
I purposely let flies in my house to shoot them. Am I weird ?
Maybe I'll just use my pepper spray lmao -_-
If bugs flying around be harder
True. We do sell a laser scope to help with mid-air shots.
Love it !!!
Mike the situation
Works great on slugs and snails. The salt penetrates into them. Great on spiders too.
NOw that’s sad. 🥺 the snails part.
@@witchypoo13 not as sad as your veggies being destroyed by the slimy things.
Leave the spiders alone. They’re natural bug killers
@@PlayshotKalo gotta keep a balance.
Yeah, lay off the spiders, they help us kill the bad bugs in the world...flies, mosquitos etc..

For a not how to use it, see Dylan Noble.
I think a 12 gauge is better.
What's UP with your Hat and Hair?! Unchanged since you were 12? Not cool, sorry. I like the gun though :)
