10 ways to swat a fly!

1.Do it early
Because they are cold-blooded, the reactions of insects depend on the temperature of the air. Early in the morning or in the evening they will be a bit dopey, but in the heat of the day they will be very quick.

2. Approach from behind
Goes one theory, because flies take off backwards.

3. Aim ahead, rather than at
Within milliseconds of sensing a threat flies get their body ready to take off forward, backwards or sideways. Given that they are going to be jumping away from the swat, it's best to aim slightly ahead of it>>sneaky ;)

4. The old-fashioned slap
Now one known this as Mr. Barack Obama himself. Stay still, keep focused, take aim and attack. Ideal for a fast hand and if the fly is stationary. And if the world's media is in attendance, YouTube fame beckons!!

5. Implements with holes
Are more effective. It's the air pressure they detect and fly away from. It's not so much that they see something coming, but they feel the pressure wave in front of the object.

7. Use hands
Put your hands either side of the fly, facing each other, so it doesn't know where the threat comes from, then clap the air a few inches above it. Wash hands immediately to remove the contents of the fly's stomach (don't ask).

8. Get a gadget
At the hi-tech end of the market there's an electric-powered mesh, a dome complete with pheromone and an insecticide aerosol. For those on a budget, there are decorative window stickers, and fly-swats cost as little 100 fils from soog almo3alem! Animal rights organisation PETA, which advocates compassion for flies, says there are humane bug-catching devices available too>>seriously!

9. Improvise with
A rolled-up newspaper (bear in mind point five, above), or a spray window-cleaner.

10. The humane approach
To capture but not kill, hit them with the palm of your hand and close your fingers over it." And if you're not an entomologist, release the fly outside. It will make you feel better.

Here's the footage of US president Barack Obama kiling a fly buzzing around him during television interview for all you guys living under a rock!
