What Customers Are Saying
Customers are split on effectiveness: many report consistent bug reduction with dead insects in traps and fewer patio bugs, while a large group experienced zero results despite weeks of use. Reviewers widely praise the LED brightness and convenient dual light-zapper toggle feature, plus the included cleaning brush. However, several note the bulb's large size prevents installation in standard fixtures. Some report premature burnout or missing zapping sounds. Overall, roughly half find it effective for mosquitoes and gnats, while others consider it ineffective, particularly against flies.

Would Not RecommendWhen I opened the package, the cleaning brush was missing. Which ended up being moot, as it hasn't kill a fly yet.

READ THE DIRECTIONS EVERYONE WITH ONE STAR
Would RecommendI was very skeptical picking this up, it seems like it would be too small compared to a full size zapper. anyway tried on my patio for the past couple days and there is not one bug flying around anymore, this far exceeded all expectations and worked fast 5 stars you wont regret buying this youll regret not buying more

Zapper
Would Not RecommendThe light is to bright for my security camera and it looks like I still have the same amount of flying bugs. I don't see any difference

Bug Zapper?
Would RecommendI can't really tell how many bugs this kills but there are definitely less of them out front when I turn it on. I was hoping for a light show of dying bugs as I live in Alabama but I guess I can settle for them not crawling all over my door anymore

bug zapper
Would Not RecommendBug friendly. Thought it would kill flies but I was wrong. Do not think that it has killed anything. I am completely dissatisfied with this product and feel that it is a complete waste of money.

OMG - 95% Immediate Results
Would RecommendI was hesitant but desperate. I could not open my door without being swarmed by various flying bugs. I have two outside lights, one over the patio and one just outside the door. If you have your basic flood light, you will need an extender so I could only put one up the first night. I was amazed at the immediate results. Our backdoor was a bit far, and there was just a few aphid like bugs. So I went to the hardware store, bought a socket extender, and put the second one in the flood light. ...

Ineffective
Our house has a few various moths, mosquitoes, flies, and gnats flitting around. A month ago we deployed this Black Flag Bug Zapper in the middle of our house. So far we have found corpses of four insects. We never hear the sound of a bug being electrocuted. In my opinion, we have wasted our money.

Hasn't worked yet...
Would Not RecommendWe bought this bulb a few weeks ago and, so far, it hasn't killed anything at all. I'm not impressed by this item.

Big zappernbulb
Would RecommendInteresting two-mode bulb: regular light and bug zapper. We turn the zapper on at night for any insect that may have snuck in, like mosquitoes, in particular. It is wide at the base, therefore, it will not fit into all outlets. Good product, nonetheless

The light works great but not near a door. To many bugs can come in when opened
