While helping family level a pergola I watched as <unnamed individual> decided to shoo away a wasp/fly/mosquito/horse fly/<annoying insect> with no luck for at least 20 minutes.  Another hour and a few beers had passed when it was decided we needed an electric swatters to rid ourselves of these annoying pests.  Took about 10 seconds and the flying beast returned with pass after pass of the swatter missing and <unnamed individual> erupting into profanity and a promise to get that flying ninja.  Well the electric swatter ended up working but not before the following occurred.

1.) <unnamed individual> may or may not have accidentally zapped themselves on the temple area of the head (HA! )

2.) Bug was wounded and landed on <unnamed individuals collar bone area.  I then proceeded to shock the insect with 2nd swatter before being swatted away myself because of arcing through the insect (more fun memories!)

  Based on the story above I took a solemn oath to find a better way to kill 'em.  I BBQ a few weekends a month and every time I do, I am invaded by swarms of flies with at least 20 of them in my house from the doors opening and closing as we move around.
