This electric bug zapper works effortlessly to help make pesky mosquitos, biting flies, wasps and moths non-existent from your yard. With UV attraction and circuit board technology, a 40 watt LED black light helps draw insects into the 5,500 Volt electrical grid and eliminates them on contact.

Take back your home from annoying insects and zap your bug problems away, 24 hours a day.

Very pleased
Efficiently dispatches yellow jackets and mosquitoes. The power of this execution device is so strong that all of the yellow jacket remaining is the thorax. Attached is the results of my first batch of yellow jacket body bits (– the mosquitoes are vaporized). Whah ha ha!

      Not An Old Style Bug Zapper...It's Effective, Efficient, Quiet, And Almost Invisible!
      I've owned several bug zappers over 30 years. I even had a smaller Black Flag bug zapper for the past 3 years. They all have worked well, but this is the first one that actually uses a black light which doesn't cast a bluish light throughout the yard. I wasn't sure how well it would work, but during the first couple nights it was completely filled with dead bugs. Now there are fewer bugs in the unit, but i believe it's due to less bugs. Before I purchased this bug zapper you couldn't go outside without being swarmed by mosquitoes. It looked like my arms were covered in fur. Now we can be outside in the yard enjoying the weather for hours and are not bothered by any bugs. This bug zapper has an energy saver setting that you can choose so it only turns on at night. I have also found that it is very quiet and you don't hear the zaps like the older units. I was unsure of paying so much for this unit, but I am very satisfied with this Black Flag unit!

      Over 100 mosquitoes in one nigh!!
      Only one night of having the bug zapper on but i can honestly say it worked!! Every night I go in the backyard to take my dog out to use the bathroom I get attacked by mosquitoes last night all i heard was zapping and was not bothered by one mosquito. Tonight I will have people over in the backyard and I know the mosquitoes are going to rather bite us then go to the zapper but this thing really worked to get the mosquitoes hopefully won't have as much tonight.

        Georgia Swamp testing its limits
        I live on 19 acres in northern GA. I have a pond, a lake, a creek, wooded wetlands and about 10 acres of forest....and my house is right in the middle of it all. We moved into this property a few months ago and we were shocked at how many mosquitos there were. It was terrible. I put this bad boy out and in 3 weeks had to clean it, I know people say it is self cleaning but I guess not on my property. Pictures attached. I am very happy with the results. There are times when we are outside and do not see a single mosquito. My recommendation is to buy several packs of the lures and put a new one out NEXT to the old one during the last week of the old one's useful life. I think the effectiveness of the lure drops pretty significantly after 2 to 3 weeks. My family can enjoy the back porch and BBQ pit. Great stuff.

          Quiet and deadly
          I wasnt sure if this product would be as effective, but this picture shows it is. My home is surrounded by several trees. We also live fairly close to a lake. I hung this from a tree about 50ft from where we sit outside. I cleared the branches around it so it wasnt being blocked by branches or leaves. You can barely hear, if at all any of the bugs hitting the lamp. I also burn tiki lamps where we sit to help in the immediate area.

            I only have a half an acre so this unit should be sufficient. I don't see or hear many bugs being zapped compared to my last older unit that died. I don't think it attracts or kills many mosquitoes.

            Definitely works!
            I bought two of these just yesterday and ran them overnight...talk about a bug massacre! I will have to clean it out as the bugs are all caught up in the grill around the unit. See the photo...

              We’ve had it up for a couple of weeks and it seems to be doing what it’s supposed to be doing and we’re pleased with its performance.
