Purple Leather 21" Heavy Duty Fly Swatter for Pest Control

mopadymopady: My old swatter needed to retire, but I like a longer handle. It’s hard to find a long handle that doesn't warp or bend when I have a death grip on it, as I swat. This new one, has a very impressive, sturdy handle! Very unexpected! Ive never had one, so thick and strong. This is better than expected and I will stick with this one from now on. I got the 2 pack, because it was a little pricey and getting 2 felt like a better value. So glad I did. Thank you!!!

JohnG: Three things I really like about this fly swatter:
1) The long handle is a must for me. I have found that swatters with shorter handles (16") don't give enough reach to get outdoor flys, which seem to be more skittish than the ones that are in confined indoor spaces.
I had an older swatter that had a 20 inch handle which I loved. I tried to order a new one, but the manufacturer has shortened the handle to 16 inches - not long enough.

2) The business end of the swatter is more flexible than plastic swatters. The extra flexibility helps get flys that are in tight spaces. The ad says it is leather. It looks like leather, but I think it may be pleather (artificial leather). Either way, it is flexible and easy to clean.

3) The handle is metal and very strong, won't bend or break. It is a thick wire (similar in thickness to the coat hangers you get from a dry cleaner - but stiffer and stronger). The wire is twisted and shaped to give it extra strength.

I highly recommend this swatter, even though it is more expensive that others. It is effective and built for long life.

Richard: Well made won't come apart. Could have used a larger leather swatter!

Michael Keim: The swatter part broke off from the handle on a couple of these after only a month of use. Not the quality I expected.

EdEd: Bought these because they looked retro and the reviews said they were of good quality. Definitely great quality. Definitely retro. Looks like something out of the 1930s. Unfortunately, while lethal against bugs, you’ll be wiping smudges from the red “leather” as well as bug guts off your walls. Keeping them but will rely on my plastic swatters for anything on a wall or ceiling.

N.X.: I started using one of the swatters and after a few days, it broke. I am returning it. It's definitely not leather and sturdy like it claims.

Kathy: This fly swatter is much to heavy for the handle.

Clint Modien: They're steel and leather. I can't imagine anything lasting longer. I'm sure my great grand kids will be using these. The handles are heavy metal too… I'm a big guy… and when I swing these they don't bend like most swatters. I'm in love. The leather isn't floppy it's stiff… althought that might change over time.
