My wife hates bugs, and I bought this for her. But I liked it so much I ordered another one and will buy more for my parents. The best thing about Bug Zapper is that you don't have to deal with the 'bug juice' (if you swat them), and you don't need to wait for the bugs to land and wait for your swat.... I even used it near a bee hive, and it was the best defense against them. A few cautions - 1) don't zap yourself, it's pretty painful, 2) don't hit metal objects, you'll see sparks flying (incl. some windows - "Low-E" windows have metallic coating), 3) you can't kill fruit flies with this zapper since it has horizontal bars that these small bugs pass through. However, you can find double or triple meshed version on ebay or sharper image if you have the urge to kill all sizes of bugs. 4) some big bugs need extended roasting - I've seen a few biggies come back to life after a brief coma.
All in all, it's quite entertaining to use. Read more Less

This is so much fun to use and effective. My son just loves it. Better than the old fashioned smash type flyswatters. Less

I've had many like these in the past and they all break. These seem better constructed. Less

This is a deeply satisfying product. Not only does it kill flies,
it does so with a bright flash and the crack of electricity. Less

I bought this little goodie as a lark and was surprised to learn what kind of a zap and spark one could get from tiny little batteries .....

Certainly not the tool to have if you have any kids .... OR .. if you have any co-ordination problems and may hit yourself or anyone around you ...... Touch the metal parts of the swatter and you will very quickly learn what religion is all about with stinging ZAP and a spark .... Read more Less
