A friend of mine had a skill that he was able to catch flies with his hands without killing them.
I've seen him do it.
Pretty impressive IMO
Three samurai are showing off their swordsmanship skills.
The first samurai draws his sword, swings it at a fly, and slices it cleanly in half.
The second samurai draws his sword, makes two quick cuts, and the fly falls into four perfect pieces.
The third samurai, a Jewish samurai, steps up, draws his sword, takes a swing, and the fly keeps buzzing around, seemingly unharmed. The other two samurai laugh and say, "You missed!"
The Jewish samurai calmly replies, "No, I didn’t. That fly is circumcised."

Anyone ever try to take the Bug A Salt past IL customs? Or in any airport, for that matter?

I was actually planning to find this thread.

I had a minor infestation of flies while I was away from my apartment.

Sticky tape took care of %90 of the issue.

Still have a few flying around. I have a zapper, but they often sit on the ceiling.

Does anyone in crown heights have Bug A Salt that I can borrow?

Try closing all the lights in the house except one room, and stand there with your zapper. At night this will usually work best.
