Review: Want to wake up to a carpet of dead mosquitoes? This is the tool that can make it happen! - Just like the bug zapper grandma used to have! This thing works! We were being sucked dry by mosquitoes at the end of the summer and it was just intolerable to be outside. I got this a few days later got it hung out on my back porch and proceeded to massacre about two mosquitoes per second for the next three weeks. You could see a gray carpet of dead mosquito carcasses under this thing every morning. It was a glorious sight! It took out plenty of nasty cut worm moths as well. Highly effective almost frighteningly so. When I stood outside and watched it, it sounded like machine gun fire as the mosquitoes were flying into the bars. Seems to be plenty powerful to roast even the fattest moths. You get what you pay for. It is a little more expensive then the XYZ brands, but I would consider that an investment because you’ll get to use this for more than one year. Truly was a plug-in play system very easy to set up. Simply plug it in and you’re good to go. The outside cage seems plenty sturdy and the slits are small enough and far enough away from the electrical element to make sure you don’t accidentally touch it with your finger. My only minor complaint is that I had to unplug it each day and gently brush the dead moth carcasses off the electrical bars with a small twig by reaching through the safety great. After I got all of that cleaned off and my stick out and away, I plugged it back in for another day of reading my backyard of the insect hordes.
Review: Hang, plug and forget - Works really good, attracts bugs right away.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this unit be used indoor?**
A: Yes, works great indoors. The Zap might be a bit loud though. My dog runs out the doggy door when he hears the zap.

**Q: Does the light still attract mosquitoes during the daytime?**
A: the UV light attracts a ton of bugs at night but day time not so much. The Octenol makes the thing a bug killing fiend but in day time it is lack luster and probably a waste. Every morning it is 100% covered and clogged from mosquitoes and i have to use my data vac to clean it off. I use the 1 acre and 1.5 acre one and both are 100% covered by morning but during the day they hardly kill anything. They work at night well even without the Octenol but it definitely helps to have it. I have terrible mosquitoes here and mine only kills a few so if you are not flooded with them it probably won't do much for you during the day. I have to go outside with bug spray at noon to keep the mosquitoes off -_-

**Q: Is there a reason I can't use this indoor?**
A: I've been using mine indoors for years because I don't really care about the bugs outside... I don't want them in my house. This model whacks bugs day and night. it doesn't stink... the hum is loud. Death to the flying insect.

**Q: After six months of use the unit quit working and still won't after inserting new bulbs.  Can these units be repaired?**
A: Shipping cost may be as much as a new unit.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Effective
*by T***N on February 21, 2026*

Works great, well-built and took care of our mosquito issue 100%, which was the reason we purchased this. Sadly though, it also attracted the praying mantises that inhabited our garden and zapped four. They are attracted to the blue light. Also noticed spider activity was higher around the light because of the critters drawn to it. Five star due to effectiveness and we will hopefully figure out the praying mantis situation.
