Forget the Flit, Rubbish the RAID, Bin the Black Flag, you can't kill these insects.

Gathering spare pieces of metal, John Brown assembles his findings into sculptures of colorful butterflies,
insects, and birds. Although the assemblages are formed from salvaged materials like nails and bicycle
chains, the pieces somehow remain delicate, wings appearing just as thin as a butterfly’s own.
After welding each piece together, Brown finishes the sculpture by painting the wings with oil paint,
accurately copying the markings of specific species such as the Holly Blue and Red Admiral butterflies.

I would joke that a baseball bat would manage quite a bit of "killing". But they're too beautiful to contemplate that.
