A long time ago I was trying to fall asleep when a large loud fly was buzzing back and forth in the room, keeping me awake. I got up and started chasing it with a swatter, but it would not land. My dog seeing the action got up and started chasing the fly with me, and I got mad at her because she was getting in my way. Then the fly took a low swoop past the dog, she snapped her jaws, and the fly was gone. Good dog.
@@123TeeMee my aunts have a cat and she loves eating flies. Before the pandemic I'd go to their house to catch the flies for them (I'm supper good at it) and their cat would help me, she would catch and eat them while I would catch and release.
I read the autobiography of this American officer who was a POW in the Korean war. In between the hard labor and torture were hours of boredom, and one thing he became very good at was killing flies. His main advice was to wait for when they would clean their folded wings with their hind legs (like at the 0:41 point in this video). They could still fly off in a split second, but because they had to bring their legs down first, it took a bit longer than from any other starting position, and gave you the most chances of killing it.
@JoeyIndolos he is very correct- you wait til they go into cleaning mode to strike, I was a vet of kitchen jobs. Interesting fun fact- a flies nerve system can be jump started with salt up to 42 minutes after being drowned (I've timed it) and some destroyed fly can also be revived with salt
For real lol. A few days ago a fly was stuck behind the blinds of my window, but my mom and I had left to the store for an hour or two. And when we came back it was *still* behind the blinds. My mom killed it pretty quickly.
Flies go towards light so close the curtains/ blinds but leave a small gap. This encourages the insect to the window. Buy one of those tennis racket shaped electric fly swatters that has a fine mesh of wires that deliver a high current from a 9V battery and pin it to the window letting the swatter electrocute it. The wire mesh reduces the possibility of the fly detecting air pressure from the swat until it is too late. They are cheap to buy and very successful. 😎
I purchased a device called the Bug-A-Salt. It's basically an air gun that discharges a shot of table salt. A direct hit will literally blow the wings off a fly however it states in prominent letters "DO NOT SHOOT IN FACE OR EYES" and I find this very difficult to comply with since about 30% of a fly is eyes.
It is, and many of our modern innovations come from bugs.

It's hard to kill them because : -if you come too fast, they gonna see it, and use the wind you create to flee away -if you come slowly too close, they gonna sense your heat and see yours slight mouve. They best is the flyswatter with holes. They don't feel your heat and can't use the wind to flee away because of the holes. Fun facts... They aren't good at distances. If you bring both yours hand closer at the same distance they will not know it's coming closer
I was thinking about finding any flies in my house and pulling those haltere things off of every single one and maybe they will de-evolve and not be fly
My tips for swatting flies: -Make sure the fly is on a flat surface clear of any fragile or round objects -Aim for hitting the fly with the centre or the "sweet spot" of the swatter. This way you maximise the chance of hitting once it starts flying away. -Approach the fly slowly. I didn't know flies had trouble seeing static objects I kinda just found out moving slowly allows you to get closer without it flying away. Exercise lots of patience. -Get as close as possible to maximise your chance of getting the fly but beware the risk of the insect flying away before you have the chance to swat it. You need some experience with this tip. -Get behind the fly. I don't know why but I can generally get closer to a fly when I'm behind it. I thought those things had all-round vision but perhaps their rear view is not as good. You may need to rely on luck for this tip as well as for the first tip. -Use bait. I usually sprinkle some crumbs of any left-overs onto the floor and wait for flies to let their guards down. Sometimes the squashed carcasses of previous victims make good bait too. Using most of these tips I've even been able to squash flies under my shoe by lifting it slightly over bait. It's become somewhat of a past-time for me on some occasions. Maybe I've spent too much time killing flies. Edit: FYI most of the time I don't use a fly swatter but a slipper
And then it flew away even after all these tricks and you end up insulting it and menacing and asking it to come back again to show it how angry you are...
I just hit it as fast and as strong as I can, works every time. Tho it uses alot of energy for one fly, at least for me It usually creates a really loud noise
Bruh, I once tried to kill an extra small fly that was extremely fast after I killed its entire legion with a few rocks. It almost killed me! I have the entire thing recorded: th-cam.com/video/YrZ2jfhfPqw/w-d-xo.html
The color of your fly swatter matters also. I noticed how with some colors like yellow and red, even in setting up for the swat, the fly could sense the swatter earlier and therefore avoid it easier. Green, blue, and beige all worked better.
@@bondgabebond4907 Because I live where there are lots of horses there are lots of flies so I bought a Bug-a-Salt fly shooter. It works great so when anyone leaves the door open it only takes a minute to clear the house of flies. The only drawback is that it does leave a little salt behind but it's easy to brush away. Your Amish fly swatter sounds cool. I like things that are well built so buying from the Amish makes sense.
A fly is like all the worse parts of a friend. They annoy you when you trying to be to yourself. Run away from you when you do give them "attention". Finally they always give you sh#t in return.
I remember catching a fly between my hands after it had been annoying me for two days. It was unable to fly but it could still walk. I flung it onto a spider web in the corner. The fly hobbled along the web towards the window, and much to my satisfaction, the resident spider raced over and started wrapping up the fly for its next meal. That fly met the end it deserved.
There used to be so many of these metallic green flies in Portugal when I was a kid, i.e. in the seventies. Now they're all gone. Even the common, grey fly became much scarce, just as so many other insects. So sad. Fabulous video, congratulations!
Sad? I don't want to make flies go extinct, but they are so frustrating sometimes when you have something important to do and that little thing doesn't let you by getting in your eyes, nose, ears, and even if you hit it, it will come back, only if you kill it it will let you in peace..
When I say "sad", I refer to all kinds of insects now scarce: butterflies, Dragonflies, Drones, Beatles, Crickets, etc. Even Bees and the common Wasp. I just don't see them anymore. For some reason, Cicadas are plentiful.

@@bennessentials4059 they don't even know how to go outside. There's one time i open the window yet they keep going on a closed window like man it's beside.
I find it interesting that sometimes I'll notice that when I grab my swatter the flies seem to hide or stop flying, as if they can understand what a fly swatter is or they can smell the fly blood on it.
I learned a trick from a friend. Just make a gentle blow towards the fly. The fly "sits" down a little. This makes the fly takeoff some milliseconds slower and easier to hit.
Fun thing about flies is that when taking off, they first fly straight up about an inch. Just swipe the air about an inch above them, and they'll always fly directly into the path of your hand (if you're trying to catch them) or your chosen fly splatting device. Never aim at them. Aim where they're going to be a split second after you start to swing. 1 inch above where they currently are.
@@cookinggerson4000 But, flies already know that. According to studies at Princeton University, (Dr. Bern-Zapf et al.2019) flies adjust their escape/avoid pattern relative to our cortisol discharge (the stress hormone we exude). With low cortisol levels in the air, flies predominately take off to the right or right-slightly backwards angled, and if they sense/detect higher levels of cortisol, statistically take off to the left, or slightly left-forward. So if you want to catch a fly, you can either work yourself into a frenzy and/or be extremely quiet and cover up in biohaz suit, and strike accordingly. But of course, not all flies are similar and some are more devious than others. I personally recommend peanut butter sandwiches, which I like a lot.
@@Mr.Monta77 jeez! really? that's incredible. as i was watching this vid i remembered telling my friend more than 20 years ago about flies taking off backwards, and it was something i had "known" for many years already, but i have no clue where i got that info from. your info takes it to a different level
I knew about halteres, but I didn’t know about how on-point flies turning could be! That’s so cool! I remember that I use to catch them in my hands when they would get stuck on the window and then throw them to my jumping spider buddies in the windowsill. Nowadays, I just throw them back outside.
Two advices: 1 if you can darken the room leaving only a tiny opening with exterior light (like a window), the flies will go towards the light and exit the room. 2 with less light in the room the flies are less reactive and much more easy to kill!
Nobody seems to understand. I don't want it to go away. I don't want it to die. I just want it to suffer. I want to catch it and pull its wings off, watch it crawl across the table in agony and break a couple legs too before taking it's life.
Flies go towards light so close the curtains/ blinds but leave a small gap. This encourages the insect to the window. Buy one of those tennis racket shaped electric fly swatters that has a fine mesh of wires that deliver a high current from a 9V battery and pin it to the window letting the swatter electrocute it.

Growing up, I got pretty good at catching the flies with nothing more than my hands! Patience, practice, and the right timing, and that fly got caught between my hands. I used to feed them to the local spiders, we had plenty of spiders that were more than willing to rush out and grab the fly, then drag it off to it's lair or wrap it up if it was an orb weaver. The spiders kept building webs and the fly population was soon under natural control. They kept breeding and feeding on anything left out, and the cycle continued. They play a surprisingly important part in the diet of birds, if there weren't enough flies, the species of birds that depended on them as part of their diet would have to hunt other insects. This would cause less of those other insects to be around. A bird can't afford to be a picky eater, if there's enough of a prey insect to go around, they will feed it to their chicks or eat it themselves.
You can also chop their limbs off and they'll still be alive as torso. If you stab its eye or behead it it'll become surprisingly calm. Seems flies can't go around without vision!
They pretty much lack emotions just pure genetically evolved instincts, as a result u will never fed up by torturing it yes u can eliminate them by setting traps.
A funny story is when I was a kid I always wondered why the fly would make that "buzzing" sound when he flew around your head, and mosquitos did this as well. Of course the reason is the sound is from their wings "flapping" so they can't fly without making the noise. You would think they would learn to fly well away from our ears.
@@69metersbelow25 what I mean is they don't fly like birds, In their thorax they have a hollow chamber that creates a levitation effect when they vibrate(not flap) their wings. The flying mechanisms are hazy to me at the moment
@@RodrigoMartinez-ib9fq just clap your hands in front and above any said fly about a foot...the fly is so fast it will literally fly right into the clap and die, use its strength against it
I worked in the Middle East for a number of years where in the late spring and hot summer the flies were relentless. I worked outside mostly and they would be attacking you during the day trying to land on your face like your eyes and mouth where the moisture was. When I was walking from my apartment to my office, I'd always carry a newspaper to swat them away. During the parts of the day when I was much less busy, I began experimenting with different spray cleaners to use as a fly killer. WE did have those bag traps where the flies would be attracted to the liquid in the bag, crawl in the small entrance and then fall into the liquid trap. I found that from all the different spray cleaners we had on hand that Simple Green worked the best. But I could only shoot down one at a time. Then, one day, I was playing with a plastic knife from the cafeteria that had a certain springyness to it so I started sneaking up behind the sitting fly and then pulling the knife back like a trigger, let it go smacking the fly and making a "home run" hit of it sending it pretty far away. There would be some fly guts on the end of the knife showing that I also did serious damage to it. But, I was fascinated that I could get so close to a fly and even started approaching it from the front head on. I could kill and kill and kill till either the plastic knife would finally break from the strain or I'd get bored. Most of the time I could get within 3 or 4 inches either in front or behind the sitting fly. If I tried to use my hand to catch a sitting fly, I could never be fast enough to grab it but that springing plastic knife moved with the speed of light so I guess the fly never saw it coming. Once, I was in a sandwich shop with windows at the front of the dining room area and there were about 10 flies just hanging about the base of the window. As I waited for my sandwich to be made, I took a plastic knife and began smacking all the 10 flies which took me only about a minute to accomplish. The manager saw me and said that he had been trying to get rid of those flies all morning long. After seeing what I was doing he found another fly and easily dispatched it using my method. I instructed him on the fine points of how to accomplish the technique in which it was most important to bring in the pulled back knife as level with the sitting fly as possible kinda like using a swinging door to smack someone with. Except for the fly guts, it's a very clean and easy and cheap way to get rid of them quickly. Of course, you'll maybe want to wear some plastic gloves and then use a disinfectant like Windex to clean up the area. The flies could be on the other side of the room on the floor somewhere. But DON'T use this method where you're trajectory would put the dead fly into a food area. IF you have access to a powerful shop vac, that works well too. I hate seeing flys in a restaurant. I know that it can't be helped but at least the management could periodically do a walk around and check the windows as the light seems to attract them. But so does a sticky table.
I was watching this video whilst spotting the fly on my desk. I tried out the trick of slowly moving towards it with my hand until i was about 1-2 inches away and then tapped it with my finger.... And i killed it! Unbelievable! And to think that it happend within 10 seconds of the video ending :)
He left us a choice to think and hypothesise, I assume it's a way of teaching us that such small creatures are able to do things we can't, and are able to show us how weak we really are so we won't be arrogant and egotistical, viruses are kind of the same but you can't even see them.

@@_Venvel I've heard that rumor too. It's not entirely true, as I've touched roaches myself, but yes they keep themselves relatively debris-free. They can still carry diseases inside them though, so best to keep them away from your food.

I remember watching a video about ranchers in Montana or Wyoming that battle yearly with keeping flys under control in the spring. They can amass huge swarms in the millions in just days and spread disease among cattle and ruin pelts by biting sores into the cows. A little off topic, just an interesting video :)
I could do precision strikes on flies with my rubber band and tear off legs, abdomens, heads, wings and leave the head hanging by a thread, they can survive without heads and abdomens
I read about and saw a few videos years ago that show when a fly takes off, it usually does so backward first before flying ahead. So when you swat at one, swat behind it (where it will be) rather than where it is. I'm still not fast enough most times, but hey, it's worth a try.
I always use the moving slowly trick. Also try oily water in a spray bottle while it's in mid flight. They literally drop like fly's without having to leave a squash bloodstain on anything.
I made accidental discoveries and tested my theory 3 times. Flies definitely do not see well in a low-light environment. Whenever I see a fly, I quickly turn off lights and then smack it. Like....super easy. That'd explain why you don't see flies at night when having cookout.

The color of your fly swatter matters also. I noticed how with some colors like yellow and red, even in setting up for the swat, the fly could sense the swatter earlier and therefore avoid it easier. Green, blue, and beige all worked better.
I don't think their green recognition is very good.
They should be clear plastic turning invisible to a fly like the predator when motionless.
Got a great swatter made by the Amish made with leather. Works like a charm and doesn't break like the plastic ones.
@@bondgabebond4907 Because I live where there are lots of horses there are lots of flies so I bought a Bug-a-Salt fly shooter. It works great so when anyone leaves the door open it only takes a minute to clear the house of flies. The only drawback is that it does leave a little salt behind but it's easy to brush away.
Your Amish fly swatter sounds cool. I like things that are well built so buying from the Amish makes sense.

I remember catching a fly between my hands after it had been annoying me for two days. It was unable to fly but it could still walk. I flung it onto a spider web in the corner. The fly hobbled along the web towards the window, and much to my satisfaction, the resident spider raced over and started wrapping up the fly for its next meal. That fly met the end it deserved.

Fun thing about flies is that when taking off, they first fly straight up about an inch. Just swipe the air about an inch above them, and they'll always fly directly into the path of your hand (if you're trying to catch them) or your chosen fly splatting device. Never aim at them. Aim where they're going to be a split second after you start to swing. 1 inch above where they currently are.
LOL I learned that by trial and error when I was 9.
But now, I told flies we know about this trick so they came up with something new.
Flies take off BACKWARDS 1ST, then forward. Aim from the back.
@@cookinggerson4000 But, flies already know that. According to studies at Princeton University, (Dr. Bern-Zapf et al.2019) flies adjust their escape/avoid pattern relative to our cortisol discharge (the stress hormone we exude). With low cortisol levels in the air, flies predominately take off to the right or right-slightly backwards angled, and if they sense/detect higher levels of cortisol, statistically take off to the left, or slightly left-forward. So if you want to catch a fly, you can either work yourself into a frenzy and/or be extremely quiet and cover up in biohaz suit, and strike accordingly. But of course, not all flies are similar and some are more devious than others. I personally recommend peanut butter sandwiches, which I like a lot.
@@Mr.Monta77 jeez! really? that's incredible. as i was watching this vid i remembered telling my friend more than 20 years ago about flies taking off backwards, and it was something i had "known" for many years already, but i have no clue where i got that info from.

Two advices: 1 if you can darken the room leaving only a tiny opening with exterior light (like a window), the flies will go towards the light and exit the room. 2 with less light in the room the flies are less reactive and much more easy to kill!
Flies are no match for me, I Am to fast for them
Flies also take off forward so if you come up on then head on. You can usually kill them.
Buy a good old portable bug zapper and put it in your room at night. Does the job all the time
Nobody seems to understand. I don't want it to go away. I don't want it to die. I just want it to suffer. I want to catch it and pull its wings off, watch it crawl across the table in agony and break a couple legs too before taking it's life.
Windex slows flies down & kills them quickly & you end up with really clean windows.😁
Flies go towards light so close the curtains/ blinds but leave a small gap. This encourages the insect to the window. Buy one of those tennis racket shaped electric fly swatters that has a fine mesh of wires that deliver a high current from a 9V battery and pin it to the window letting the swatter electrocute it. The wire mesh reduces the possibility of the fly detecting air pressure from the swat until it is too late.
They are cheap to buy and very successful. 😎

Growing up, I got pretty good at catching the flies with nothing more than my hands! Patience, practice, and the right timing, and that fly got caught between my hands. I used to feed them to the local spiders, we had plenty of spiders that were more than willing to rush out and grab the fly, then drag it off to it's lair or wrap it up if it was an orb weaver. The spiders kept building webs and the fly population was soon under natural control. They kept breeding and feeding on anything left out, and the cycle continued. They play a surprisingly important part in the diet of birds, if there weren't enough flies, the species of birds that depended on them as part of their diet would have to hunt other insects. This would cause less of those other insects to be around. A bird can't afford to be a picky eater, if there's enough of a prey insect to go around, they will feed it to their chicks or eat it themselves.

A funny story is when I was a kid I always wondered why the fly would make that "buzzing" sound when he flew around your head, and mosquitos did this as well. Of course the reason is the sound is from their wings "flapping" so they can't fly without making the noise. You would think they would learn to fly well away from our ears.

I worked in the Middle East for a number of years where in the late spring and hot summer the flies were relentless.
I worked outside mostly and they would be attacking you during the day trying to land on your face like your eyes and mouth where the moisture was.
When I was walking from my apartment to my office, I'd always carry a newspaper to swat them away.
During the parts of the day when I was much less busy, I began experimenting with different spray cleaners to use as a fly killer.
WE did have those bag traps where the flies would be attracted to the liquid in the bag, crawl in the small entrance and then fall into the liquid trap.
I found that from all the different spray cleaners we had on hand that Simple Green worked the best.
But I could only shoot down one at a time.
Then, one day, I was playing with a plastic knife from the cafeteria that had a certain springyness to it so I started sneaking up behind the sitting fly and then pulling the knife back like a trigger, let it go smacking the fly and making a "home run" hit of it sending it pretty far away.
There would be some fly guts on the end of the knife showing that I also did serious damage to it.
But, I was fascinated that I could get so close to a fly and even started approaching it from the front head on.
I could kill and kill and kill till either the plastic knife would finally break from the strain or I'd get bored.
Most of the time I could get within 3 or 4 inches either in front or behind the sitting fly.
If I tried to use my hand to catch a sitting fly, I could never be fast enough to grab it but that springing plastic knife moved with the speed of light so I guess the fly never saw it coming.
Once, I was in a sandwich shop with windows at the front of the dining room area and there were about 10 flies just hanging about the base of the window.
As I waited for my sandwich to be made, I took a plastic knife and began smacking all the 10 flies which took me only about a minute to accomplish.
The manager saw me and said that he had been trying to get rid of those flies all morning long.
After seeing what I was doing he found another fly and easily dispatched it using my method.
I instructed him on the fine points of how to accomplish the technique in which it was most important to bring in the pulled back knife as level with the sitting fly as possible kinda like using a swinging door to smack someone with. Except for the fly guts, it's a very clean and easy and cheap way to get rid of them quickly.
Of course, you'll maybe want to wear some plastic gloves and then use a disinfectant like Windex to clean up the area. The flies could be on the other side of the room on the floor somewhere.
But DON'T use this method where you're trajectory would put the dead fly into a food area.
IF you have access to a powerful shop vac, that works well too.
I hate seeing flys in a restaurant. I know that it can't be helped but at least the management could periodically do a walk around and check the windows as the light seems to attract them.
But so does a sticky table.
