We had the same problem, and the lightbulb wasn't completely screwed in.
This is not a good idea. The electronics would be harmed if they were exposed to water. It comes with a brush to help you get rid of the dead bugs, but I think a Clorox wipe or something similar would be a better cleaning product. Also, make sure it's unplugged and allow it to cool for a few minutes before handling it.

Given that it was designed for outdoor use, I believe it will be fine. br>Just to be safe, I'd recommend unplugging it and letting it dry before plugging it back in. My, on the other hand, has been out in the rain and wind with no problems. It's designed to be used in the open air.

Because it is protected from the winds, I have a single door in the back corner of the house that serves as a mosquito haven. That makes it impossible to open it in the evenings in the spring without allowing dozens of them inside. br>br>So, as soon as I got this unit, I put it there, and the zapping began immediately. I became strangely entertained while counting zaps while safely behind the door, watching the blue light through the door glass panes. They came at a regular 5-minute interval. 15 seconds x 6 minutes x 15 seconds x 15 seconds x 6 minutes x 15 seconds x 15 seconds x 15 seconds I spent far more time verifying that number than I care to admit. When I opened the door ajar to watch and giggle, the smell of burning insects quickly filled the room. br>br>From about 7 p. m. to 1 a. m. , the beat never stopped, and the result can be seen in the video I posted here in the morning. The device's grid was completely covered in thousands of dead bloodsuckers. I used a leaf blower to clean it because I didn't want to touch it, and it worked great, hurling desiccated insect remains high into the air for their last flight. Pieces of Rest! br>br>My only regret is that I did not purchase two when I first received this a few days ago. Since then, it's gone up in price from $19 to $27! br>br>However, if you, like me, have a backyard lake and forest, I challenge you to a higher number. The spoils will be awarded to the victor! Back for a quick 2-minute visit=================================================================================================== month's worth of updates br>br>After doing some research, I moved it away from the door and now it's hanging from an old bird-feeder hook where I can see it through the window. I leave it on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and clean it occasionally with a leaf blower held at a safe distance. Because of the thick layer of dead bloodsuckers surrounding it, there are times when I can't even see the light. br>br>According to the study I mentioned earlier, bacteria-related diseases are on the rise. When the insides of insects boil as electricity heats them up, covered insect gut pieces fly all over the place, exploding all over the place. You can hear a "popping" sound. Yes, someone did some research on that. According to that paper, contaminated insect pieces were found in abundance 10 feet away from the trap in a windless room (though I can't recall the height). br>br>In short, what I took away from reading it was that using this trap inside, particularly in a kitchen or eating area, is disgusting, if not dangerous. I avoid eating insect guts if at all possible. Unless they're covered in chocolate, because all chocolates contain bugs (ignorance is bliss if it means I get chocolate).
Because there were no reviews, I was a little hesitant to purchase this bug zapper. I'm glad I took the risk because it's definitely reducing the number of mosquitos in my home. When my lights are turned off, it works best. The light attracts mosquitoes. Lures aren't necessary. So, every time I hear a "zap," it makes me smile. I'm a satisfied customer. My purchase was aided by the price. I had some difficulty turning it on, but I eventually figured it out. VOILA, simply turn the bulb's bottom. Because there is no power button, you must unplug the cable to turn it off. Overall, I think this is a good product that I would recommend.
I purchased two of these bug zappers and photographed them after three nights of use in southeast Texas. Unless a larger bug is zapped, they mainly make a popping sound. Several of the pops are audible in the video. I've cleaned them twice now, and I'm planning on doing it once a week. To truly clean it, you must remove four small screws and remove the housing. They seem to be of good quality. It is possible to change the bulb. Overall, they're a good investment.
On Amazon, you can find the laws Tongue houseplant. Hundreds of fungus gnats flew out of it when I removed it from its plastic packaging. It was like waking up in the middle of the night. All of my other houseplants became infected as well. Months later, I'm still battling this problem with a variety of treatments. My husband has threatened to toss all of my indoor plants out the window. I tried a bug zapper out of sheer desperation. I immediately plugged it in and placed it near my houseplants when it arrived late last night. I began to hear zapping sounds after a few minutes. It's very satisfying. The other cool thing is that I've been hearing the zaps all morning, so it's not just at night. I'm hoping it will get rid of the dreadful gnats in my house. I'll let you know as soon as I have more information.
If this piece of garbage fell on a mosquito, it would not kill it. We placed it outside our house on the coast, where the saltwater mosquitoes were particularly bad. . . The next day, there was no sign of death. I can't express my dissatisfaction with this enough.
It's amazing how well it works.
I was worried that the larger flies would be blocked by the enclosing plastic grid when I first received this device, but they enter and are zapped alongside the smaller insects. I've used fly strips and sprays, but they only worked on a small percentage of the flying insects. I've only had the unit for a day, but no flies or mosquitoes are buzzing around my head anymore. Every now and then, I'll hear a snap/zap signaling the death of another intruder. br>br>Recent changes: br>br> It ceased to function after four months. It performed admirably while in operation.
