Bug-A-Buster 2.0 Salt Gun – White

The Bug-A-Buster 2.0 in white gives the pump-action salt gun a clean, neutral look that sits comfortably in a laundry room, mudroom or utility cupboard. This white salt gun uses the same pump-action 2.0 mechanism as the other colours.

Inside, it is the proven 2.0 design: fill the hopper with dry table salt, pump once and fire a spread of fine grains at a fly from about 2 to 3 feet. The white salt gun costs $47.99, the same as every other model.

Key features of the 2.0 White

• Pump action: one pump sets the spring and loads a shot. No CO2 cartridges, and the salt mechanism needs no batteries.
• Proven 2.0 design: the simple, hand-powered model for everyday fly control.
• Runs on table salt: the top-loading hopper takes ordinary dry, fine salt, so there are no special refills to buy.
• Pop-up sight for quick aiming at a fly on a wall, rail or window frame.
• Textured grip for a steady hold while you pump and aim.
• Chemical-free: nothing sprayed near food, children’s toys or pets.

Where it works best

Indoor-adjacent spaces such as sunrooms, mudrooms and enclosed porches, where a fly lands on a window frame or wall. Always clean up salt from food-prep areas afterwards. A white salt gun blends in with laundry rooms, sunrooms and screened porches.

A salt gun works on flies that are resting, not flying. It is best for house flies, horse flies and deer flies. It is not intended for wasps, hornets or yellow jackets, which are more likely to be provoked than stopped. For a heavy infestation, remove the breeding source (bins, compost, pet waste) first and use the salt gun for the stragglers.

How to use it

1. Fill the hopper with dry, fine table salt.
2. Pump once to set the spring and load a shot.
3. Wait for the fly to land, then move in slowly to about 2–3 feet.
4. Line up the pop-up sight, then squeeze the trigger.
5. Pump again to be ready for a follow-up shot.

Specifications

Care and clog prevention

Damp salt is the most common cause of clogs. Keep your salt in a sealed container, empty the hopper if the gun will sit unused, and store it indoors. See our guide to the best salt for a salt gun for tips on which salt to use. Wipe your white salt gun with a dry cloth to keep it looking clean.

Safety

Wear eye protection, never aim at people or animals, and keep the gun away from children. It may look like a toy gun to others, so use it at home or on your own property. Read our salt gun safety guide before first use.
