Are you having trouble with swarms (wasps, mosquitos,
elephants....)??
If so, let Vimworthy's Patented Swarm Eliminator come to the rescue -
with it's fearsome array of omni-directional high-powered spray
nozzles, assisted by a pre-heating boiler and super-heater coil, you
can head straight into the centre of the swarm, confident in the
knowledge that you will take out the whole swarm with one squirt!
Materials: brass, copper, shell cases, "Dron-Wal 5/P" compressed-air
sprayer, Tecalemit "Cycle Gun" grease gun
Dimensions: 12" x 17" x 22" (30cm x 43cm x 56cm)
Weight: 9lb (4kg)
