Yeah don't buy these to deal with mosquitoes.

(picture is of a Black Flag Deluxe Bug Zapper with a purple background and a mosquito drawn large on the front. It loudly claims 5500 Volts.)

They are found at big box home improvement stores in the US. Do not buy.

Attached: 1 image Despite being marketed against mosquitoes, bug zappers mostly kill moths and other beneficial pollinators. Mosquitoes are not attracted to light. That is why the box can only show a drawing of a mosquito, but it does not mention the word even once.
