Amazon’s New Mosquito Trap Has a Near-Perfect Rating

Nothing quite ruins a relaxing summer night like the buzz—and bite—of a mosquito. 

You can douse yourself in all the bug repellent you want, but try as you might, the pests are pretty hard to get rid of. One solution is to add a bug zapper to your yard, which works to stop mosquitoes and other pests before they become a nuisance.

This indoor and outdoor electric bug zapper is brand new to Amazon, but has already racked up hundreds of reviews and earned a near-perfect rating—and it’s on sale for 40 percent off right now. The zapper uses ultraviolet waves to attract mosquitoes, flies, and other flying insects, then delivers an electric shock to protect up to a 2,200-square-foot area.

A waterproof and rust-resistant metal coating protects the zapper from all types of weather, so you don’t need to remove it from your patio during a summer rainstorm or that spring snow shower you weren’t expecting.

It includes a 6.5-foot-long cord, so you can place it away from your immediate space to catch bugs before they approach. It can also be placed close by if you prefer, as a proactive grid protects curious fingers and paws, ensuring safety for children and wildlife. Plus, it has a 10-year lifespan, so you can keep your yard or home bug-free for years to come.

The zapper comes with a hook for hanging, or you can place it on an outdoor table or an indoor countertop. To clean, simply pull out the insect collection tray and empty it into a trash can, then use the included brush if it needs a more thorough cleaning.

Despite being a new release at Amazon, the zapper has already earned a 4.8 out of 5-star rating, with shoppers calling it a “must-have for summer.” They go on to say it makes their “indoor and outdoor spaces more comfortable.”

While most shoppers use the zapper on their patio or during camping trips, others utilize it to catch bugs that make their way indoors. One shopper says their cats often open the doors and let bugs in, but “everything has changed for the better” since adding the zapper to their home. “It kills all the flies and mosquitoes before they even have a chance to cause any problems,” they wrote. “I no longer have to stress about bugs flying around or worry about the mess they leave behind.”

Another shopper even calls it the “best purchase I’ve made all year,” writing, “The fruit flies are terrible at my house. I’ve been using this bug zapper for a few days now, and my fly issue is significantly less.”

Join the more than 5,000 Amazon shoppers who have added the bug zapper to their cart in just the last month, and keep scrolling to browse more bug zappers to help keep your summer pest-free.
