A spray bottle of Windex (or other light amonia solution) or rubbing alcohol can be used to knock flying insects down long enough to squash them. Set the nozzle to mist just right, and go at 'em. I only use this for flies and mosquitos - not for the buggers with big stingers. Not sure how I'd use this tip to save my life - but the WD-40 trick reminded me of it.
WD-40 isn't a great lubricant (try and find the word "lubricant" anywhere on the can even) but it is great to have around. I use it for all kinds of cleaning chores as mentioned here. Of the real cheap SOB's in the crowd (read DARELL) kerosene does everything that WD-40 does. A gallon of high-grade kerosene costs less than a small can of WD-40. I just keep some in a squirt bottle. For all intents and purposes, WD-40 IS kerosene.
