Black Flag Bug Zapper Lantern

It is specifically designed to target mosquitoes, biting flies, wasps, and yellow jackets. While the UV light will attract a variety of flying insects, the high-voltage grid is optimized for these common outdoor pests.

The included Octenol attractant is designed for 30 days of continuous release. You will need to replace the cartridge monthly to maintain peak effectiveness throughout the season.

Yes, the unit is built to be weather-resistant. It is designed for outdoor use and can withstand typical outdoor conditions, though it is always good practice to ensure it is plugged into a protected outlet.

While it emits a UV white light that is bright enough to attract insects, it is primarily a functional pest control device rather than a decorative light source. It provides a soft glow, but it should not be relied upon as your main source of patio illumination.

The zapper uses a high-voltage grid, so it should be placed in an area that is out of reach of children and pets. Because it is an electric trap, it is best to hang it or place it on a stable surface where curious hands or paws cannot make contact with the grid.

The grid is generally self-cleaning as it zaps insects, but you should occasionally unplug the unit and gently brush away any debris buildup to ensure the electrical connection remains efficient. Always ensure the unit is completely powered down before cleaning.
