BLACK+DECKER Bug Zapper | Electric UV Insect Killer& Catcher for Flies, Gnats, Mosquitoes, & Other Flying Pests | 6,000 Sq/Ft Coverage for Indoor/Outdoor Use Includes Home, Kitchen & Other Areas

It works beautiful. It is easy to install.

This is the most beautiful night light one can own. The soft blue hue illuminates the entire area enough for my cats to see what they are doing, and for my starlight-enabled cameras to use color night vision. This is light and easy to hang anywhere. The 1-foot cord is great because it makes it way more convenient to go and get an extension cord and run it up a wall and over a ceiling to plug it in. I highly recommend this light for all the above reasons.The only drawback to this light is that it does not eliminate any type of insect whatsoever. I found little friends camped out above the light bathing in the rays. If you want pest control, this is not the product you want. I had faith that Black and Decker would work despite all of the negative reviews. I do not know how this is still available for sale as a bug light. Maybe it. makes them easier to spot the bugs at night vs complete darkness.Do not take my word or others' word for it. Give it a shot. Then come back and leave your review :)

Great product. Instant death to those insects.

I hate mosquitoes and i live in Florida, so i have to use bug zappers etc. i have purchased so many duds from Amazon. I found these black n deckers to be the longest lasting until now. My last three bnd zappers same model as these lasted 3 years!!. These same model bnd zappers i purchased a few months ago are already dead,useless,garbage. I will try to repair them myself and hopefully get one working from using the other ones parts. I cannot reccomend buying these from THIS seller as the ones ive purchased in the past from sellers that are no longer on Amazon lasted at least three years. I am an expert on finding ways to kills mosquitoes since like i said, i live in Florida where they eat you alive!!

We live in Texas and it's HOT here! Here come the house flies! So we have had a serious house fly infestation this year. Fly swatters don't work; those wily flies evade, evade, evade. I bought Raid Flying Insect spray.... that works for about 4-6 hours and then they are back in full force. Raid, of course, is a chemical and toxic to humans and pets so I do not like using a chemical. I stopped using Raid because of the toxicity and the fact it was only lasting a few hours. In desperation, I purchased this Black&Decker indoor bug zapper. It is larger than I thought and the lights (2 UV florescent tubes) are much brighter than I thought they would be. It was supposed to come with a cleaning brush for the grid (execution chamber) but it didn't include it. Bummer. It's also not a B&D product although branded as such under license. The zapper is made in China by a company called "Umba Group." However, there is a U.S. 800 number for B&D listed in the instruction manual. The zapper is made, almost entirely out of high quality plastic.So how does it work? Well, I set it up about 6 feet off the floor; I needed to buy an extension cord as the supplied cord was not long enough. Plugged it in and the lights shone brightly even in full daylight. At night it is quite bright but not distractingly so. Before we started using this, I was constantly being bothered by flies, swatting at them, waving them away, etc. Just six hours after we plugged it in for the first time, blessed relief! The flies were no longer using me and my wife as airport runways! Now, the occasional fly zeroes in, but they seem anemic and I can easily kill them with my hand. This all sounds GREAT, right? Maybe. Because to date, after 3 days of operation, I only found 4 dead flies in the tray. I gaurentee that there were dozens and dozens of flies flying around before. Where did they go? I can only hypothesize that the zapper is doing SOMETHING?! Maybe it is stunning them and they go off and die somewhere? Regardless, I'm no longer being bombarded by flies and the relief is palpable! I will update this as needed as this is only day 3.

So far I've caught six mosquitos

I bought a different brand bug zapper that was about the same size, and it died after 7 months, so a tried this bug zapper. It is really much quieter, but it sometimes does not kill the bug; they just fall into the bottom collector tray and flap what is left of their wings. About a month getting this zapper, I was contacted by the first manufacturer who seemed very concerned that their zapper had failed, and they sent me a replacement so for a while I had two zappers going in my basement; because of animals, we need to keep the trash in the basement, and we get a good number of gnat sized flies. I had one of these Black & Decker zappers mounted about 5 feet from the trash bags and I hung the replacement unit about 25 feet away. The older replacement unit is very loud and really "zaps" the bugs, and there are at least 10 times as many dead flies under the replacement, non-Black & Decker zapper. This Black & Decker unit just died after 8 months so I am really not happy with it. I had placed the second unit in the basement of my other house that has field stone walls and lots of critter problems. The second house is not close, so it has been 3 months since I last saw that Black & Decker unit working which was 2 months after I first put it up. I closed that house up for the winter and it was not zapping the bugs anymore, but the bulb was still working so a spider had set up shop on the electric grid; I tried cleaning it, but still no "zaps". Of the two Black & Decker units, 1/10 the number of dead files and one unit operated for 8 months and the other 5 months, so not good performance or life span, but the zappers are much quieter than a competitive zapper. Other than less noise and a good, small size, I don't have anything I like about the Black & Decker zappers. I hope the other brand zapper keeps working, because it really does a much better job of killing the flies.
