ASPECTEK 20W Heavy Duty Bug Zapper, High-Voltage Electric Mosquito and Fly Killer, Indoor and Covered Outdoor Gnat Control for Bedroom, Patio and Greenhouse, Includes 2 UV Bulbs - Purple

Wow! You know, I really wanted to provide a video of how well this Aspectek 20W Bug Zapper works, but seconds after plugging it in -- and I do mean seconds -- it killed its first fly. Within a minute, two more. It happened so fast that I couldn't even put my iPhone into video mode to capture it. So allow me to go back in time for a moment... I have had a huge fly problem in my home for quite some time. The problem is people and pets coming in and out of the house. The flies just flock into my home and they are all over the kitchen. I bought one of those battery-operated fly swatters, but using those require a lot of patience. You have wait for your prey to land on something and then hope that you can actually swat the fly before it flies off. When I felt "enough was enough" and that the problem was getting out of control, I poured over Amazon reviews for days looking for the perfect electronic bug zapper. This one from Aspectek seemed to have consistently great reviews. Upon taking it out of its packaging I noticed that it was extremely lightweight. It's also well packaged in the box with a nice amount of bubble wrap covering the unit to avoid damage. Additionally, the plug and bug tray are secured with locking tie wraps. You should have no concerns about your unit arriving damaged. The Bug Zapper comes with a small chain that latches on to side hooks. That was a nice bonus. I actually opted to hang this on an abandoned plant hanger in my dining area. Once unpacked, you simply insert the fly tray into the bottom of the unit and turn it on. It's that simple to have it set up within minutes of unpacking. Upon turning on the power, two black bulbs instantly light. As I mentioned earlier, it took mere seconds for me to see positive results. Loud crackles told me that it had captured its first fly. Indeed, there was a fly hopping around in the tray. It had lost one of its wings during the zapping process. It was going nowhere. Two more flies were instantly killed within a minute later and their dead carcasses were deposited into the tray. All I had to do was remove the tray and deposit the bodies into the trash. Yes, I have noticed that some flies do get stuck in the mesh. However, the mesh is electrified and the flies eventually are zapped dead. Yes, this does make a rather loud crackling noise, but it's not to the point where it's really going to make anyone jump. Really, there is more satisfaction to the sound than negativity. I understand from some reviews that bulb life is not optimal. There are very good instructions included on what kind of replacement bulb to buy and how to replace it. I suggest keeping those instructions in a safe place. One tip I can provide: unless you have a huge problem in your home, don't keep this running for hours on end. You can keep it running for 30 minutes a day and get rid of your fly problem. Remember: the flies come to IT. For automated homes, I suggest buying a WEMO plug. I just tell Amazon Alexa to "turn on bug zapper" and the unit automatically turns on. I also turn it off with a similar command. WEMO plugs also work with Siri. You know why this is so great? You can be sitting in your easy chair, be bothered by a fly or similar pest, and simply command your bug zapper to turn on without having to leave your seat. It's so wonderful knowing that your investment has paid off mere minutes after unwrapping. For this thing to work so quickly and effectively gives me immense satisfaction. This bug zapper not only works, but it does so tremendously well.

Update 8/7/25 Out of the many bug zappers I have tried, I am very glad to have discovered this brand. I have been given other brands to test out and several companies have tried to copy this brand, but other brands have fallen way short to the durability and performance in killing bugs like the Aspectek brand. My two older versions are about four years old and still work. Since the other brands are so inferior, I feel compelled and am willing to spend the extra time to tell how great this zapper is. I just tried their newest LED version of this bug zapper, but when I hung my two older zappers next to the new LED version, I observed that the older version zapped about twice to three times as many bugs. I will post a recent picture of my four year old zapper hanging next to an LED version to show what I am talking about. The pictures show ONE night’s worth of bugs. Beware that if you live in a heavily bug infested environment like I do, you will have to clean the grids each day. Because of this huge difference in performance, I just bought another brand new older version that still uses the fluorescent 10 watt tubes. I will be returning the LED version back. Yes, with the older version I have to replace my tubes about every year, an additional cost, but I want efficiency in killing bugs. The difference in the new version is that there is a new brace that screws the two outer safety grids together. I suspect that the reason is that the older style outer grids are difficult to snap into place and I have to pry them with a flat screwdriver to release. Since my older versions are around four years old, I do not remember the electrocution grids being so shiny made of stainless steel like the new one I just bought. The newest version does have narrower grid openings. Older version has a outer grid opening of 5/16 wheras the newest version has a 1/4 inch opening. This difference in grid openings will hinder larger bugs from entering. I have yet to compare the new old version to the old, four year’s old version. I hope you appeciate the comprehensiveness of this review. Original (old) product review: I am in my seventies and have purchased many bug zappers. It is difficult to find a robust zapper that not only has an effective electrocution grid, is easy to clean, and also has an effective set of lights that draw bugs and last a decent amount of time. I like that this zapper is about a third the price of the out door models I have purchased in the past that have died after one season’s use. The snap sound is about twice the volume of my outdoor models. The unfortunate handicap with this unit is that it must be used out of the weather. I am impressed with its sturdiness, and especially its high voltage electrocution grid. I know the electrocution voltage is high because it makes a startling loud, SNAPPING sound when an insect hits its grid. This can startle anyone close by and my dogs jump when the bug zapper snaps. The grid is sturdy and the spacing is narrow enough to easily kill flies and mosquitoes. I live in east Texas, out in the country where we get a decent amount of rain and livestock are close by to breed flies and mosquitoes. I have chickens that have suffered from annoying mosquitoes. The picture I posted shows my birds on their roost. They tolerate the loud snaps from insects being killed. I liked this zapper so much that I bought another one I will be installing on my patio. My main concern is how long the light and zapper grid will last. If this zapper prematurely fails, I plan to update this post. I was going to buy some smaller ones of this brand, but saw that several have posted that the lights burn out quickly. The main negative I have for this zapper is the electrical cord is inconveniently, way too short. For first impressions, I am very pleased.

The little ones don't work. This works great.

I normally don't review products this early. I only got this bug zapper a few ago, but I have to say, this thing WORKS! I have been plagued by stinkbugs, Asian lady beetles, moths, and cockroaches for the longest time. I know I have to do some sealing around the house, but for the time being, I needed to do something about the ones that are already in the house. A bug vacuum just won't do, I needed to find something that would effectively stop the ones that are coming too close to where I work and eat. So, I decided to pick up this insect killer and wow does it work. I left it on one night and when I came by in the morning, it had zapped at least 10 different bugs. Nothing too crazy, but these things were absolutely fried. Some were stuck in the grill, some fell onto the plastic tray below, and some other ones just kind of seem to have been thrown little ways away from the actual zapper. Regardless, they were all dead, and that's really all i need it to do. I will say, a few things that have been a bit of a bummer, This thing is LOUD. Like, I can hear it a good distance away in my bedroom whenever it ends up zapping something. If I was right next to it when it zapped something, I'm pretty sure I would at the very least from the shock (ha) of the sound. Second, the cord is unfortunately a little short. You would probably need an extension cord if you want to use the chain that comes with it to hang it up somewhere. Besides that, it's really good. I look forward to using it over the summer when the bugs really start coming in.

This is the product you want if you have a fly or other flying insect problem. This will kill moths, flies and mosquitoes and probably others but I only have issues with those three. Less than a minute after turning this on it was zapping away. Almost like hearing a popcorn popper going. This is the second one of these I have had. The lights if left on continuously 24-7 lasted me about 8 months. If you have it on only at night when it works best then with the spare bulbs you should not need to obtain replacement bulbs for about 30 or so months. I will tell you that this device will make fast work of all kinds of flies and are particularly effective against those tiny ones you can barely see. In the first week I counted over 300 dead flies the last time I got one. I bought the second one because I loaned my original one to a friend who now doesn't want to give it back. So I made it a gift and ordered a second. This is a slightly updated version of the one I bought over a year ago. The assembly hardware appears slightly different and they now include a chain you can hang if by. Make sure you unplug this before you try to change the light bulbs. OH and there is a handy tray for cleaning. You will definitely want to empty that periodically. Do it gently as the flies don't weigh much and it is easy to dump them on yourself. A vacuum might work though I have not tried that. So how well does this work compared to other things I have tried? I have tried bug spray. That is pointless. Enough to kill all the flies would make the air unbreathable for 48 hours. I tried a cheaper solution consisting of a very small UV light and a piece of sticky paper. That was effective but on a very small scale and you have to replace that paper frequently. I ran out of paper in a week and then found I could not buy replacements. That item was about $10 so that would be $520 a year if you want constant protection. I tried one of those electric fly swatters that look like a badminton racket. It's the same idea but you have to chase the flies around all day because there is no UV light to attract the flies with. So that was a waste of money and I think I paid something like $25 for two of those. They were rechargeable but who wants to put all that effort into it? So then I tried this device and it worked beautifully. Nothing else completely eliminated all the flies in under a week. It took about three days to make the flies unnoticeable then it was just this thing killing them as they sneaked into my house, a few a day. For the whole time I had it going I never once had any but the occasional fly that would always find it's way to this zapper. A note, I live in a very warm climate conducive to insect infestation. In this area a lot of people have to tent their houses periodically to get rid of flying insects. This will prevent that from being needed at least for flying insects. My place is about 3000 cubic feet so not terribly big. I might suggest a normal size three bedroom house might be best served with at least two of these or possibly a third if your home is particularly large. Say at least one for every 5000 cubic feet of space. This will plug into a standard 110 outlet and uses a minimal amount of electricity. I have mine plugged into the same outlet with my refrigerator.

Absolutely worth every single penny, this thing is the ultimate mosquito zapper. I did read a lot of reviews about it being pretty loud. I would say it is loud, but it is zapping the mosquitoes so that is expected absolutely doesn’t bother me. I would buy this again.

I live on a mountain in the rain forest, in the Caribbean close to the equator. There are some serious insects down here! I've lived in the USA south, and they have nothing on these Caribbean pests! I was honestly SHOCKED how well this thing worked. The bug zaps are explosive (took a while - but the cats are used to it now). I have several other bug zappers in all rooms... But they are nothing compared to this one! I empty the bug-filled tray out once or twice a day - just slides out. And I snap the cover screen off to vacuum up the rest about once a week. Taking that screen off once a week is a must! Just takes a second to snap off. Great access - Easy to fully clean. The two bulbs in there lasted over a year and a half! It's on 24/7. Unfortunately, I lost the two extra bulbs that came with the unit. I was about to order two more bulbs on Amazon - But then realized it's a huge bargain just to buy another unit! A new unit comes with two extra bulbs. And there is another reason to simply buy a new unit rather than separate bulbs: Packing. It's a rough ride by boat to the Caribbean. If I ship bulbs here it's very likely they would break. The packing of this new unit along with the spare bulbs was very solid - Very strong! It's just worth it for the packing alone! I hope this helps.

This bug zapper works well. My only dislike is that it is Really Loud when it zaps a bug. I'm hard of hearing and my 13 y.o. dog is almost deaf and it makes both of us jump when it zaps! It wakes my poor old guy up from a sound sleep when it zaps! The good news is that it gets those pesky flies and mosquitoes. The clean up is easy. If the bug hasn't been blown to bits, its dead carcass is in the easily removable tray for dumping. I'm thinking I'll move this to the covered back porch and get something a little less noisy for the living room. Would I recommend it for indoor use? Maybe. I've had this for a week and still jump when it zaps, so maybe not. For a covered outdoor use? Absolutely. Keep in mind that it is for Indoor use so if you put it outside, be sure it is protected from the weather.

È la terza lampada che acquisto, funziona perfettamente sia all' interno che all' esterno, manutenzione semplice da eseguire. La consiglio

Biz açık balkonda kullanıyoruz. Uçanı kaçanı patlatıyor. Ayrıca ışığı o kadar kuvvetli ki başka bir aydınlatma kullanmanıza neredeyse gerek kalmıyor. Bu güne kadar bir çok alet edevat aldım bu sivrisinekler için. Bu şu ana kadar en iyisi. Ayrıca şık ve kaliteli duruyor. Basit bir görüntüsü yok. 2 adet de yedek floresan çıktı kutusundan.

Muy buen producto
