After I bought this, I saw other reviews on other websites with the same complaint. The light attracts the bugs, but the zapper doesn't kill them. Apparently not even made by Black & Decker, just some company with the rights to use their name. I had swarms of bugs circling around the zapper last night, but only a few still there. Most of the bugs were still hanging around the light this morning alive and well.
Go with another zapper.

only plug this in.. if your in the dark.. the bugs dont notice it otherwise. but once your in the dark, it really goes to work. i've even had grasshoppers trying to get into it trying to get the electric chair. my dog hates the sound of the zap bug kill. but who needs bugs. it has a very short cord.. about 9 inches.. so you have to plug it into something fast.. and not a low plug... i keep mine up on a wooden bar stool at nite..and any bugs that are in the house 3,500 sq. feet.. are all put to death in short order. i think they say you are not supposed to use it indoors.. but thats the only place i use it.. i dont mind bugs outside. but... i have lots of doors and windows with no screens that i leave open.. so eventually.. if your in a buggy area.. probably an area that isnt so buggy.. minor bugs.. this is probably great for indoors.

Works very good !
I still need to read about it if I should put outdoor far away to attract the mosquitos somewhere else or near by where I'm stting - but works great at my house !
Looking to buy another one - maybe 2 ( indoor and outdoor at the time )

I puchased more that 12 months ago, I works great, now I have to replace the bulb.

The difference with other mosquito zapper I bought is that I'ts internally works on 12v on the electrifier, so you can use it(I think) outdoor more safely.
Other differences is weight, it is a little bit heavier than the chinnesse zapper, because of the internal 110v to 13.8v Transformer.

I like it, Now I will transform it to operate at 12v DC.
