About this sound
An AI-generated sound effect: “Sharp, fast moving whoosh of a hand swatting through air, followed by a tight, crisp wet impact of a fly being struck, ending with a faint tiny crumple of the insect hitting a hard flat surface, no music, no speech, single discrete impact event”. Quality-checked before listing, free for commercial and personal projects — videos, games, podcasts, apps and client work. No royalties — just credit BudgetPixel AI.
Direct file: WAV · 44.1 kHz — both WAV and MP3 are on the download button.
Editor's note (10.0/10): This clip perfectly matches the brief, with the required fast swish onset, tight impact, and faint insect crumple, no speech, music, or unwanted background artifacts.

- Is "Fly Swat Impact" free to use commercially?
- Yes. "Fly Swat Impact" is free for commercial and personal use under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0) — monetised YouTube videos, podcasts, games, apps, ads, streams, films and client work are all covered, with no fees, royalties or subscription. The one condition is the credit: “Fly Swat Impact” by BudgetPixel AI (https://budgetpixel.com/sfx/fly-swat-impact-5c0f25f0) — CC BY 4.0
- Do I have to credit BudgetPixel to use "Fly Swat Impact"?
- Yes — crediting BudgetPixel AI is the one condition of the licence, and downloading still needs no account. Put the credit line from this page wherever your project lists sources: a video description, end credits, show notes, or a game's credits screen.
- What format and length is "Fly Swat Impact"?
- "Fly Swat Impact" runs 1.5 seconds and downloads as WAV at 44.1 kHz, with MP3 on the same download button. Both formats carry the identical licence, so pick whichever your editor prefers — WAV for layering and pitch work, MP3 when file size matters.
- Can I use "Fly Swat Impact" in a monetised YouTube video?
- Yes. Monetised video is explicitly permitted. BudgetPixel never registers library audio with Content ID, and because this sound effect is licensed to everyone non-exclusively under CC BY 4.0, no one can hold the exclusive rights Content ID requires. If a claim ever appears, dispute it and cite this page and its licence.
