A magnifying glass was another cleaver trick - focus the sun on one,
runs round in spiralling circles until it smokes and pops! Stinks

Gosh, this reminds me of my miss spent youth. Electrocuting ants

240v AC on two bear wires wrapped around a tree, very close together,
but not touching.

Every few seconds POP bye-bye ant.

Ah those were the days, before being zapped my self and learning the
hard way the mains hurts. :-(
