Hey now

As a Dr. Seuss fan, I think I can guess what a Flit Gun is - it's
a hand-pumping spray gun for Flit, an insect repellent/killer.

Dr. Seuss used to draw the ads for Flit - usually another character
saying "Quick, Henry, the Flit!" as some huge insect was going about
it's business in a way that only Dr. Seuss could bring to light.

ObVW content - I just use the mosquito netting across the back hatch
of the Westy... :-)
