Product Reviews

Don't buy it
I bought this item and it only zapped 1 bug. If anything some spiders have made a home in it. Don't waste your money.

Horrible Design
I can't imagine who thought this design would be a good idea and I can't believe I bought this product.

Most zappers have an electric grid that surrounds the light, not this model. Bugs are attracted to the light at the top portion of the zapper and the electric grid is below, essentially rendered ineffective. As if that wasn't enough, there is a plastic plate between the electric grid and the light. This zapper will attract bugs but won't zap them.

I also saw a gnat land and prance around the grid. It felt like he was taunting me.

Absolute Crap
Simply does not work. Most of the bugs are fling in swarms about it at night quite happy that there is zero threat from this unit. Accidentally a bug or so will get into just the right spot and die. It probably gets a bug or 2 a night.
