Barack Obama recently showed off his skills at keeping his Oval Office pest free by swatting a pesky fly with a rolled up magazine.

The US president rolled up a magazine, squatted, and whacked the bug, which had landed on the carpet, the New York Post reported.

White House said in the photo caption of the incident, which was released as part of the White House's "2014: A Year in Photos" collection, that aides laughed as President Obama swatted a fly that was invading his space in the Oval Office.
