At Christmas dinner in the 1980s, my mother was walking behind my grandmother with a bowl of food when she spotted a fly on Gramaw's head. She swatted it and looked around the table with a shocked look on her face and said "It's Okay if there is a fly". Best Christmas dinner ever.

The electric fly swatter is a bust. It's two metal meshes with a plastic separator. It might work for gnats, but the flies just bounce off if they can't dodge it.
