Tools and Hardware Reviews of Stinger UVB45 40 Watt 1-Acre Ultra Bug Zapper
Customer Review: Zapper without the Bzzzzzt Noise
Summary: 5 Stars
This thing is awesome. I was very happy with my old Mosquito Magnet until it stopped working, and I had not heard that these zappers no longer made any zap-noises. I didn't do an exact analysis, but I assume I'm saving a lot of money on energy, based ont he bulb wattage ans how often I had to put another 20 lbs of propane into the magnet.
This can be set two ways - day & night or just night use. The "switch" is very simple, it's just a cover that slides over a photovoltaic cell. The instructions say not to leave it out in the rain, but that is exactly where ours is right now. It will last about 2 years even if you just leave it out. (we're on our second one right now - and this doesn't bother me at all compared to what I spent on the old mosquito magnet). Actually the first one might have had a burnt bulb - never tried to change it.
As for mosquitos, I would say it's a bit more thorough than the magnet. With the magnet, it takes until the 2nd year before you won't get bitten in your backyard. After the first year, you'll see one only occassionally. With the Zapper, even during the peak of the first summer (for one year in between we had nothing), you'll rarely see a mosquito. Now into the 3rd year, I can't remember the last time I saw a mosquito in any corner of our 1/4-acre yard. The the first summer we left it on 24-hours a day.
For placement, too, I put it to the far side of the side-yard opposite the garage, so I can't see it from any window or the back yard. The neighbors asked what it was, but the light didn't bother them and they appreciate the reduced mosquitos. The old magnet had to be in the shade, which meant in the backyard in view of the porch.
For total insects, the zapper of course doesn't discriminate. It gets all the moths also, which is fine for me - less catapillers on the trees, and less moths getting in the house - and I can leave the front door light on now at night when I'm out and not come back with an etymology collection on my screen door when I get back.
The one thing you'll notice is the metal mesh fills up every week or so, and because of the diameter of the outer mesh, it's hard to clear it by just blowing out the dead bugs. You can, but you'll give yourself a headache or half pass out! It seems to keep working full or empty. I wish I had some compressed air to clean it out, though.
Description of Stinger UVB45 40 Watt 1-Acre Ultra Bug Zapper
The 40-watt black light bulb increases catch by over 40% than traditional ultraviolet white light bulbs. The Octenol lure helps attract mosquitoes and other blood seeking insects by emitting a sent similar to a large mammal.

An easy to see indicator switch lets you know when the zapper is working.Tools and Hardware
