There is no doubt that insect, as small as they may be, can really cause a lot of aggravation and discomfortDepending on your situation there may be more or less need to control flies, wasps or any number of a million other insects.

Electric bug zappers have been around for many years in commercial and farm settings, and now they are also available to the average home owner.

The way that electric bug zappers work is that they use a light that attracts the insects, since many insects are attracted to lightThen what the bug gets close to the light it lands on the metal strips that are close to the lightBy landing on 2 of these closely spaced metal strip the bug actually completes the electrical circuit and 120 volt goes through the insect and that is the end of that bug.

Electric bug zappers are a very effective way to inexpensively and with no chemicals kill many insects.

Many years ago, my introduction to this kind of Insect control was on the dairy farm that I grew up onSince we were producing a food product, the concern of using chemicals was very realWhen these commercial electric insect zappers came out we got one right away and put it in the barn close to the milkhouseIt was amazing the number of flies that were attracted to it and killed every nightIt was easy to see the effectiveness, since there was literally a pile of flies on the concrete floor every morning when we started the milking process.
