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 RecommendItem is a little expensive from Lowe's. Been finding them quite a bit cheaper but they work so I cant complain too much.

It goes
Would RecommendI bought it for my basement because the window occasionally get left open without the screen. The switching between light on and zap only mode sounded odd on the directions, but worked well. I only put it on for a while after a open window event, so I have no idea about longevity at this point.

Not much zapping
Would Not RecommendThe white light is nice and bright. But the zapper is not bright or big enough to attract any insects.

Bug eater
Would RecommendMosquito’s have been really bad this year, made it miserable sitting on deck at night, so I bought this light bulb, plugged it in and it worked great. Best way I know of to get rid of mosquitoes.

Worth it
Would RecommendI have creek running behind my townhouse and mosquitos and all types of flying insects invade my backyard at night. This thing has been a blessing. Bug zapper and a led light. Effective and cheap.

Bug Zapper Review
Would RecommendThe zapper bulb worked ok. After a daybor so it seemed as if it stopped killing the bugs because they started to avoid it and just congregate near it.

Works on moths
Would Not RecommendBought bulb to help with gnats but one I seems to have no effect.

A newspaper would be better.
Would Not RecommendThe attached photo shows all the bugs the bulb has killed since I bought it. The purchase was made on 8-9-18, that 16 days the bulb has been working(?). As I hope you can see in the attached photo, there have been 3 bugs killed in 16 days. I have killed more just swatting at gnats. Save your money and roll up a newspaper.

Black flag led bug zapper
Would RecommendI love it! I have a problem with mosquitoes in my house right now and we haven’t been able to sleep due to them biting us all night. I looked into getting something that doesn’t make our house look weird or try to use harmful chemicals. We went in to see what we could find and this caught our attentions. After the first night my family woke up and noticed we weren’t bit once! We are super happy with this product and would recomend it to everyone!!
