Why it’s worth it

The unit uses a 365nm UVA photocatalyst bulb that attracts insects both day and night, then a 2800V power grid neutralises them on contact according to the manufacturer. The housing is made from flame resistant material and a pure aluminium frame that is light and easy to wipe clean. Protective grids help keep children and pets safe and the detachable grid makes bulb replacement straightforward. Expect modest running costs and limited upkeep compared with chemical alternatives.

How to use it

Plug the zapper into a standard socket and position it away from competing light sources for best results. You can hang it from the supplied chain or set it on a flat surface, and the removable collection tray makes emptying simple. It’s suitable for bedrooms, kitchens, garages and small commercial areas such as offices or storage rooms. It’s a sensible option if you want continuous, hands-off insect reduction, though note it will need periodic cleaning and bulb replacement over time.

What’s included

The package includes the bug zapper unit, a hanging chain and two free replacement bulbs so you have spares ready when needed.
