These are useless as mosquito control and kill lots of beneficial insects.

"They are a total waste of money. Bug zappers will not control mosquitoes or other biting insects such as horseflies, dogflies or deerflies," said Jonathan Day, associate professor of entomology with the UF's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences.

"They simply do not work as advertised. In fact, bug zappers actually make things worse by attracting more mosquitoes into your yard, and they end up killing thousands of beneficial insects that don't bother people."

Outdoors these make no sense to use, you're simply bringing more bugs and bugs/animals that hunt them to your yard.

Indoors without line of sight to windows these can be useful.

THIS. Tested several on a big farm in FL: 80% of the kills were moths ( key pollinators at night! )

This is not true at all. I have and had them in my yard. It depends how much light exposure you already have around house/property. The brighter the areas the less effective these are. The main thing I use these for is killing termites(when they in season flying around). Works like a champ. It also kills mosquitoes(more effective with attractants). I leave a pile of damp wood under it, I wet during terminate season.

My yard is extremely dark 1 Acre and I positioned it near the backside. My surrounding neighborhoods turn off their lights at night as well during termite season. I will see a mound of dead termites on the the wood and various other insects. Moths, mosquitoes, house fly, and sometimes a fly.

So yeah if you sitting outside on a bright porch and you have this next to it. I agree it not going to do much of anything. Maybe kill some moths. For inside I also don't see point of this one. I have a smaller device about size of coke can. It rechargeable. I leave it next to fruits in kitchen at night. Again all lights turned off completely off. It kills the fruit flies and the rare stray moth I might get in my house.

If you use it properly it will do the job extremely well.

It's no use in controlling mosquitoes. They get attracted but not so much as to zap.. so you get more volume but very few get zapped.. in the mean time other bugs that are beneficial will go get zapped.

What's the confusion?

I will say putting it at the far end of your yard does have some use depending how many beneficial insects you also have. If you're killing bugs that eat mosquitos tho, you done messed up

I guess these don't work on flies? I got it but it has not zapped anything so far. I feel like the bugs are not flying towards it. But I thought the fly might get zap but it's clean as a whistle.

Mosquito Attraction to UV Light

General Attraction

Mosquitoes are not strongly attracted to UV light like some other insects, such as moths. While they may occasionally fly near light sources, light is not a primary factor in their attraction to hosts.
Effective Cues for Mosquitoes

Instead of light, mosquitoes rely on several key sensory cues to locate humans and animals:
  • Carbon Dioxide: They can detect carbon dioxide from up to 100 feet away, which is often the first signal that alerts them to a nearby host.
  • Body Heat: After sensing carbon dioxide, mosquitoes use heat sensors to find warm skin beneath clothing.
  • Body Odor and Sweat: Chemicals released through sweat and skin oils, such as lactic acid and ammonia, help mosquitoes distinguish between different people.
