Review on ๐ŸฆŸ Nobug Bug Zapper Electric Fly Swatter: Powerful 3000volt Handheld Mosquito Fly Gnat Zapper for Effective Indoor and Outdoor Pest Control by Jennifer Williams

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Doesn't always get the job done

For certain insect sizes, from Mosquitoes fly up to fruit bugs, this works really well. Anything too small to make contact with the inner and outer mesh will pass harmlessly. In most cases, the power is too low to kill house flies. Since the kill surface is actually recessed and you can't hit them directly on the surface and expect to get hit rather than spattered, most of the time you'll be trying to shoot them down in mid-flight. After that, if the fly doesn't get stuck in the racket, it will bounce back a bit, so you may have a hard time finding the body. He won't necessarily be dead either, just crippled. Flies are a big problem in late summer so I've used this a few times. Although this thing sometimes manages to kill them, in about half the time, up to half an hour, the fly is stunned and motionless and then partially paralyzed and still able to crawl somewhere. Keep this in mind if you are looking for a humane solution you need to get it done. Those that recover will be active enough to continue to be accepted as live food for some pets that eat live insects, so that's an option as well.

Pros
  • Powerful 3000 volt output to kill flying insects with one touch, use 2 AA batteries (not included)
Cons
  • Can't remember but there was something
