Fun idea, flawed technology fails for flies

Loved their online ads and the concept, so I got a "Bug-A-Salt". We did have fun with it the first few days. However, over time it seems that the power really goes down, so you end up having to shoot salt at a small fly 5-10 times before you kill it. Kind of defeats the purpose. Also, we have high ceilings and the upward range is limited. Finally, salt residue everywhere needs to be cleaned up. In one case, salt went into my laptop's keyboard and jammed the keys. More of a gimmick or toy than a real tool.

British flies must be hard as nails

I don’t know if British flies are hard as nails but this thing hardly touches them. It takes 6-10 shots to stun a single small fly and then you have to whack it to kill it.Really disappointed, for the cost and reviews it’s rubbish

Mine lasted 3 seasons

Mine lasted 3 seasons , then stopped shooting salt . As it was out of warranty I thought let’s pull it apart.The reason it stopped working was the rubber piston seal has perished and hardened and deformed due to being immersed in salt constantly. The company don’t sell replacement parts. So unfortunately its going in the trash.I’m going back to swatting and sprays .

Surprised by other reviews

Surprised by other reviews, it's fun, but ours just seems to send a fine spray of salt out which doesn't bother the flies in the slightest. Edited to add - I messaged to ask for a refund, was sent a form to fill in and in less than an hour I received a refund notification. So, very impressed with the customer service!

My wife for some strange reason thought…

My wife for some strange reason thought to waste good money on two of these.Total crap. Dont buy into this marketing hype. Whilst the product quality is good, it just doesn't work. You are far better off with a $2 fly squatter from the dollar store.I think its tuning into the manly man ideology. There will be a mad flurry of use for two days until you realize its crapola, then it will be resigned to the place where all the other crap appliances live. Too expensive to junk, too crap to use.Mine now grace the shelf of crapola in the garage along with the juicer, bread maker and veg peeler stripper shaper thing.

Excellent product, amazing customer service, and now just got a lot better with the laser, hours of fun, they really do work, strange when you find yourself waiting for flies to come in ;-)Not sure about all these bad reviews I have had excellent service and excellent support.

This is more of a query

This is more of a query. You can’t contact the company via phone and they don’t answer emails. Can someone help me by letting me know how they contact the company. I urgently need to cancel an item I accidentally ordered 3 of but to no avail. Thought maybe the company is a scam?Sue

Company doesn't care about customers.

Initially a good product but the salt container will fail within the year. Submitted for warranty eventually but was a couple of weeks over the year, despite it being faulty a long time ago. They will not do anything to help, they just offered a 20% discount (I can get it for cheaper from a reseller). Just another company that takes your money and has a zero care factor once the transaction is completed.
