fly swatters
Insect-smacking mesh tools
Fly swatters are handheld implements designed to kill flies and other flying insects with a quick swat.
The typical design features a flat, flexible striking surface—often perforated to reduce air resistance—attached to a long handle.
The perforations allow for faster swings and more accurate hits, since solid surfaces push air that warns the insect.
