How does it compare to a bug zapper?
Please read our insect zapper page to find out why bug zappers are not safe to use. We live at Tweed heads, which is currently suffering a massive mozzie invasion. I really need a good indoor solution as we are being eaten alive. Your product seems to function in the same way as the mosquitotrap but at half the price. Why is this please? Apart from the cheaper price, our bugeater does not require the ongoing expense of octenol and/or CO2 The reason is that our device targets the male mozzie, and hence the entire breeding cycle, whereas theirs targets the female (biting) insect. You might at first think that going after the the mozzie that bites you is a good idea, but in the long run, removing the males kills off the entire population and therefore the females too. Ours works best outdoors, where the mozzies breed. Kill off the breeding population outside, and you won’t be bothered inside! In short our solution focuses not on the symptom, but on the cure.
