About
What Is It?
- Bug Shot™ non-salt ammo is a large-grain ammunition specifically formulated to obliterate flies, bugs, slugs, snails, and other annoying pests while minimizing collateral damage to nearby plants.
- It's made from industrial-grade crushed walnut shells carefully selected, refined and processed to provide optimal performance in most pump-action bug guns. Bug Shot is 100% natural, biodegradable, non-toxic and plant-safe.
Why Is It Plant-Safe?
- Blasting flies and other annoying pests with salt is a fun way to do your own home pest control. But salt is highly toxic to many plants and can cause devastating collateral damage to nearby plants that get caught in the cross-fire.
- While shooting a single load of salt (125mg) may not seem like much, repeated shots can accumulate over time causing injury and distress. If you're shooting multiple kilograms of salt into your yard and it's slowly turning brown, you might want to cut back on the salt! Bug Shot is 100% salt free.
How Is It Bug-Deadly?
- Like a shot gun, bug guns use kinetic energy of fast-moving granules ("shot") to inflict damage. Faster-moving, more-massive granules inflict more damage.
- Bug Shot granules, on average, are 3-4x more massive and 40% less dense than ordinary table salt. This enables a lighter load (75mg) of Bug Shot granules to be accelerated to a higher velocity, producing up to 6x more kinetic energy per granule.
- Bug Shot granules have irregular shapes and sharp edges, which (1) help penetrate a target and inflict greater damage and (2) increase shot dispersion resulting in a wider, more controlled shot pattern compared to table salt.
- Unlike salt, Bug Shot ammo will never clump or clog, even in the most humid weather conditions.
