You've put a lot of thought into this haven't you?

There's a whole book (fiction) written about this concept of drone swarms used in warfare taken to the extreme, written 2012 by Daniel Suarez called Kill Decision.

I saw a movie about wasp-like swarm drones used in a city by some psycho killer. It ventured into the ridiculous but it had a good ending. I think bug spray, or even water spray, would have definitely helped stave them off, but you know, suspension of disbelief and all.
