Commercial strength for coverage of at least 3000 cubic feet. Best solution I have found
This is the product you want if you have a fly or other flying insect problem. This will kill moths, flies and mosquitoes and probably others but I only have issues with those three. Less than a minute after turning this on it was zapping away. Almost like hearing a popcorn popper going. This is the second one of these I have had. The lights if left on continuously 24-7 lasted me about 8 months. If you have it on only at night when it works best then with the spare bulbs you should not need to obtain replacement bulbs for about 30 or so months. I will tell you that this device will make fast work of all kinds of flies and are particularly effective against those tiny ones you can barely see. In the first week I counted over 300 dead flies the last time I got one. I bought the second one because I loaned my original one to a friend who now doesn't want to give it back. So I made it a gift and ordered a second. This is a slightly updated version of the one I bought over a year ago. The assembly hardware appears slightly different and they now include a chain you can hang if by. Make sure you unplug this before you try to change the light bulbs. OH and there is a handy tray for cleaning. You will definitely want to empty that periodically. Do it gently as the flies don't weigh much and it is easy to dump them on yourself. A vacuum might work though I have not tried that.So how well does this work compared to other things I have tried?I have tried bug spray. That is pointless. Enough to kill all the flies would make the air unbreathable for 48 hours.I tried a cheaper solution consisting of a very small UV light and a piece of sticky paper. That was effective but on a very small scale and you have to replace that paper frequently. I ran out of paper in a week and then found I could not buy replacements. That item was about $10 so that would be $520 a year if you want constant protection.I tried one of those electric fly swatters that look like a badminton racket. It's the same idea but you have to chase the flies around all day because there is no UV light to attract the flies with. So that was a waste of money and I think I paid something like $25 for two of those. They were rechargeable but who wants to put all that effort into it?So then I tried this device and it worked beautifully. Nothing else completely eliminated all the flies in under a week. It took about three days to make the flies unnoticeable then it was just this thing killing them as they sneaked into my house, a few a day. For the whole time I had it going I never once had any but the occasional fly that would always find it's way to this zapper. A note, I live in a very warm climate conducive to insect infestation. In this area a lot of people have to tent their houses periodically to get rid of flying insects. This will prevent that from being needed at least for flying insects. My place is about 3000 cubic feet so not terribly big. I might suggest a normal size three bedroom house might be best served with at least two of these or possibly a third if your home is particularly large. Say at least one for every 5000 cubic feet of space. This will plug into a standard 110 outlet and uses a minimal amount of electricity. I have mine plugged into the same outlet with my refrigerator.

It zaps them!
Bought this to keep in my garage workshop where I leave the door open for ventilation. Because of this I tend to get lots of flying insects in there and trying to spray them was useless. This thing really zaps tem and it is loud when it does. So loud that I jump everytime it happens but that's well worth not having the pests around. Well worth the money and works well.

Actually kills flies!
It really works and actually kills flies! You'll also be surprised how many other little flying insects it zaps too. I HATE flies. Dirty pesky nuisances and that sound drives me insane. Wish I would've found this years ago.PS: At first the pop noise it makes will startle you, but it will soon becoming satisfying.

It works well, but watch out for bug spillage and loud zapping noises
The Good:It works for its intended purpose, at a reasonable price. This lamp kills those small flying insects that get into the house, especially in summer. I particularly like that it works throughout the day, even when the room (I keep it in the kitchen) is very well lit.The Not Great:Some times bugs are just stunned and fly away (though likely to die soon thereafter). Most of the time, the bugs that it kills do not fall into the nice tray at the bottom of the unit. In my experience, most of the bugs it kills fall in the surrounding area, within six to ten inches of the lamp. Not ideal if there is food nearby, so keep a clean zone around the lamp. I also do not like to keep on overnight because it lights up the entire room as if someone was up all night.The Bad:It is LOUD when it zaps a bug, even a tiny one. If you have sound-sensitive pets, or easily-startled humans, this lamp will not work for you.

Where has this been all my life???
The media could not be loaded. I purchased this bug zapper after having a procedure on my back that requires a lot of bed rest. The same week of my procedure, a swarm of flesh flies and cluster flies suddenly appeared in my apartment. Chasing them around was both overwhelming and painful, and I needed a quick solution to save both my back and my sanity. This little zapper packs a punch and has been a lifesaver! I can finally rest at ease and hear the satisfying “pop! pop!” knowing the flies are being taken care of. It’s like music to my ears. Within just a few hours of turning it on, it had already killed several flies of different shapes and sizes. It’s overall a very quiet device and doesn’t make a loud constant buzzing sound like other zappers I’ve come across.Don’t get discouraged if you see a fly land on the bulb and wander around for a few moments. When I first saw this, I thought perhaps my device was defective. Lo and behold, within a few seconds, the fly dropped dead.The zapper has a convenient tray at the bottom that makes disposing of the flies easy. A surprising bonus: when it zaps flesh flies, the maggots that would normally crawl out when killing them in other ways (which is absolutely horrifying) don’t appear—which is a huge relief!I’ve set sticky traps along the outside as a backup since sometimes after the flies get zapped, pieces of their bodies will fly off (I’ve seen it happen with legs, heads and wings so far). So far only one fly ended up outside of the zapper from moving around as it was dying but the sticky trap caught it. The combo has been incredibly effective and makes it easy to clean up.I’m considering buying additional zappers for each room because it’s so easy to set up and is by far the most effective method I’ve found for getting rid of flies, especially the fast ones. I never thought I would be so thrilled about a fly zapper but it’s equally as satisfying as it is handy. I highly recommend it—10/10!
