Have any of you used a laser to replace your flyswatter?

That reminds me of a dream my dad had a few years ago. In that dream they used recycled lasers (from laser printer or things like that) and two large microphones (he described them as Mickey Mouse-shaped). The device used triangulation to locate where the flies was and then zapped them with the laser ;D

Yes, but when burning with a Dilda, do you wear goggles?  I mean, you don't point the laser at your eyes.

I have read the entire thread.  And I did read your post correctly; I can sense a bit of hypocrisy in that statement.

Umm..... here in Montana, we do not have shiney or mirrored ground. The dot is aimed at the ground around them and moved to see their reaction. The dot is not held in one spot right in front of their eyes, and the texture of the ground and plants diverges the dot quite effectively. No hypocrisy here.

Maybe i should have included a legal disclaimer when i started this thread. NO ANIMALS WERE INJURED OR MAIMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS THREAD!

Hunting to kill and prey drive are two very different things. All predators hunt to kill. Prey drive is when a dog has an uncontrollable urge to catch and kill small moving things, rarely to eat (when my dogs catch something, they kill it, and that's the end of it). Herding dogs generally have it. Prey drive has nothing to do with hunting, despite the name.

What I want to know is, are you wearing goggles at this time?

No......contrary to popular belief, us Montanans do not keep wild animals and birds in our houses! This is outdoors. I do not walk up to the deer and say "hey guys! Check this out!!!" and make them stare into a fixed, focused dot on the ground right in front of their face.

Indoors with a domestic animal, where there are numerous reflective surfaces would be a completely different story! So drop the "Animal rights activist" routine!
