Keep Pests Out Of Your Home With These Bug-Busting Gadgets

Pest Repeller
While chemical repellents tend to wear off quickly and pose a threat to children and pets, Palmanpound's Ultrasonic Pest Repeller offers a safe solution.
These devices plug into any standard outlet and are activated with a button tap. They emit a powerful ultrasonic frequency of 22-65KHz that drives small pests away.
Electric Swatter
Fly swatters are classic bug-battling tools, but they really only work when the pests are still. Luckily, you can use a tool like the YISSVIC Electric Fly Swatter.
The tool is a large racket with a triple-layered mesh net containing an electrical emitter. Swatting a bug with the racket instantly zaps them with 4,000V of electricity.
Salt Gun
The BUG-A-SALT salt gun is designed to offer the ultimate bug-blasting experience, pelting targets with powerful shots of salt from a short distance.
Load the hopper with ordinary table salt, cock the slide, release the safety, and pull the trigger to fire a blast up to three feet away.
