Unlike conventional fly swatters, which often leave smears of dead fly after they have been squashed, the makers claim that the only clean-up this remarkable device needs is a quick brush.
The pump-action fly-killer has already been snapped up by almost 100,000 people in America, and the device is now available online in the UK, priced around £35.
The plastic shotgun uses compressed air to propel a pinch of table salt at the intended target, and holds enough salt for 50 shots before reloading.
A spokesperson for the company said: "This is a completely safe way to take out an annoying bug.
"Because it uses ordinary granulated table salt, it would never break the skin on even the smallest child - although we do not recommend firing it at people.
"If you've got half-decent aim, you can take out a fly from more than three feet away. It's an extremely effective method of killing pesky mosquitoes and moths as well."
