ASPECTEKBug Zapper & Electric Insect Kill Mosquito Bug Fly & Other Pests Killer, Powerful 2800V Grid 20W Bulbs, Indoor use only

The media could not be loaded. We buy a ton of stuff from Amazon...too much stuff, lol. Because of that, I only write reviews if something sucks or if something, like in this case, exceeds my expectations. We live in Florida, and during the summer, we sometimes struggle to keep flies from getting inside. We are constantly coming in and out of several doors throughout the day. I've tried the fly traps that stink to high heaven (more on that in a moment), I've tried fly paper, and just about everything else. No dice. In near desperation, I bought this bug zapper. It took a little detective work to determine the most effective location to place this device, but once I figured that out, it started working its magic immediately. We have a propane-fired water heater in our garage next to the door leading inside. Turns out flies are attracted to the CO2 given off by the propane as it burns. They are also attracted to the odorant put in propane (called Mercaptan). This zapper is legit. I have been emptying the tray at least twice just to see the fly body count. It is definitely working, and at present, the fly problem is gone inside the house. Of course, it is zapping mosquitoes and other flying critters, too, but it is the flies we wanted dead. One thing to note - when it zaps a fly the sound is a bit startling. I can sometimes hear it inside the house. When I am in the garage and it gets one, I am still caught a little off guard by the sound. It is pretty loud. It is also oddly satisfying LOL. I will be getting a second one for our back porch near my grill as that is another fly hot spot. A note regarding those fly traps that you fill with water to attract and kill flies. We tried them several times. Here’s the thing… they will ATTRACT flies from miles around and they will trap and kill them. But they are bringing in flies that likely wouldn’t be on your property in the first place. We hung 3 of them as far from the house as possible at different locations. They quickly filled up with nasty flies but it made no difference to our inside problem. This zapper won’t attract any extra flies rather it just steadily deals with the ones you’d normally have around.

Works very well

Had one for 5 years. It fell over and broke. Kills bugs and flies very well. Love it

The ASPECTEK Bug Zapper is the only one that has worked for me so far, and this is my second purchase. It's highly effective indoors, zapping mosquitoes and flies instantly. The UV light attracts pests well, and it's easy to clean. However, the bulbs burn out quickly, and I had to throw away my last one because of this. Despite that, it’s a reliable, chemical-free solution for pest control.

Good product, draws flies to its light.

I've bought probably 8 of these. We live in WV and stink bugs are everywhere. We keep 2 of these in the house on 24/7/365. They kill stink bugs without them stinking, and any other bugs drawn to light.

Just bought this last month and everything was fine. Today, however, i heard a pop sound and then some buzzing that I thought was a big bug or something trapped and moving around. Went to check anyway and saw smoke coming from the right side of the unit near the power button. Immediately unplugged and turned it off! The vents up top also had this black ash residue. The bulbs and lights looked fine so for sure was something on the inside of the unit. It also smelled like melted plastic rather than fried bugs.This all seems to align with what a lot of other bad reviews have stated. Some have said it was the smell of "electrical fire" or the motherboard going out. Also, the smell of "chemicals" and "plastic" seems to be talking about the same problem as well. All have said they were lucky to be there or else it might've caught fire and done real damage to their home.With that being said, I'm giving this one star. Although it worked amazingly, it only lasted after just over a month of usage. With it also being a potential fire hazard that can't be left unattended, it's a very risky buy and not worth the trouble. They don't do as good a job but I'm leaning more towards getting those vacuum traps that attract insects and pull them downward to a sticky pad. Hopefully the components of those devices won't catch fire!

Yes, it does catch mosquitos, usually overnight in the dark. However, a lot of times, mosquitos still attack us while the bug zapper is very close to us. It is quiet, easy to use and clean. But it is not as effective as advertised.
