MYIAGROS
The deity from Greek Mythology

God of Flies and Fly-Swatting

“It's true! He was employed by ZEUS to chase away the flies during important sacrifices. This must have been a real comfort to those involved.

In those ancient unsanitary times, flies were dangerous critters, bringing plague, sickness and death. In fact they were the original weapons of mass destruction. Without the benefit of fly-spray aerosols or fly-paper, only the Gods could keep them at bay. Few people know that BEELZEBUB himself started out as a fly-swatter. ”
