How Do You Use A Bug Zapper?

A bug zapper can be very useful when you want to cut down on the number of insects in your yard. Bug zappers attract insects with ultraviolet light and kill them when the insects come into contact with electrified mesh. Visit a garden or hardware store. Speak to a sales person about the store’s selection of bug zappers. Purchase the amount needed to keep your yard bug free. Identify a location in your yard to hang the bug zapper. Hang it away from decks and porches where people will congregate. Keep it away from trees and flammable items. Install a hook that will support the weight of the bug zapper. Use a small hook when installing under a building overhang or sink a metal hanging hook into the ground. Connect the bug zapper to a power source. Most bug zappers require a regular electrical outlet. Use an all-weather extension cord if the zapper’s power cord does not reach an outlet.
