  1. Well, here are some steps , tips and warnings for killing the bugs :-

    1.You can either hang up a sticky fly strip or hide a small sticky bug catcher box under or behind furniture, in a cabinet or such place.

    2.Find an object to exterminate the pest, if you need a more immediate exterminating method such as a news paper, piece of cardboard, a paper-back book or a regular fly swatter. Roll it up or position it in your hand so it is comfortable.

    3.Position it about a foot above the insect.

    4.Hit the insect. But you need to hit it fast enough so that it doesn't have time to react but hard enough to exterminate the insect on contact.

    5.Scrape and/or wash the insect-remains off the surface and dispose of it in a fashionable manner

    6.As an alternate to crushing the bug, you can make or buy a spray household pesticide.

    7.Mix about 5% orange oil with 95% water or 10% orange oil with 90% water [1] (not orange cleaner) in a sprayer bottle like an old Windex(r) bottle (shake the mixture well before each use) follow manufacturer recommendations on their label or website. You can go to www.wikihow.com/kill-household-bugs

    8.Buy a commercial product and follow the labeled directions.

    9.Then, spray down the bug and any area where you think it may be or may enter the dwelling and save and refill the orange oil sprayer and dispose of the empty can in a reasonable manner.

    10.Another organic earth product is diatomaeous earth [2] a powdered form of an irritant for insects that kills them by getting into their joints.

    TIPS :-

    For disposing of the pest, you might want to use a rag or paper towel. Throw it in the trash, or to be sure it won't come back, flush it down the toilet. Carefully watch it spin around in circles to insure it goes down.

    In order to get closer to the bug, you might want to approach it from their back and slowly.

    You don't have to kill the bug. It might feel more rewarding to catch it.

    Orange oil is externally "non-toxic," but don't get in in your eyes, avoid prolonged exposure to the oil or vapors (use with adequate ventilation) and don't swallow it. It is not an instant knock down for insect.

    WARNINGS :-

    Some bugs can sting, be careful with any bug that is fuzzy worm (fuzzy asp), black (black widow), brown (brown recluse), bright colors, striped (yellow jacket or bees), or with a visible stinger (Should you be that close!?).


  2. Buy a heavy metal grinder.  Grind some steel until you have a small pile of steel dust.  Spray the dust with something that smells good. maybe your sweat.  After the fly has eaten enough of the steel dust it can no longer fly and you can pick it up and do whatever you wish with it.

  3. Over in Asia we have designed and its sold in the market a mini version of a tennis racket ,rechargeable that's zap any insect that comes with contact with the surface of the racket ....!!! Quiet fun  when you see it get zapped you see blue or yellow sparks and you get to hear a sizzling sound

    Very effective.......!!!

  4. Why kill it? Just open your window and let it fly out. Unless it's raining where you are, too.

    Maybe just set up a fan and let the air currents blow the bug away from you.
