We bought one at Sterens, the electronics store. It is powered by regular batteries, and is a little more “high end” than your Chinese Buffet version. It’s pretty cool.

I have found them for sale in hardware stores, like True Value. I use mine on scorpions here in Arizona. It really pisses them off at first, but they eventually die. It runs the the batteries pretty good.

Ours is 100% effective. In fact, when a bug hits it THERE IS AN EXPLOSION. It’s awesome.

I’ve had one of these things for a few years now. It only ‘kinda’ works. I used to swat at a fly and get it lodged in the mesh wire, but the electricity was pretty weak. A lot of times it wouldn’t even kill the fly. You’ll have to test it out and give us a report. Just how effective is your little insect electric chair?

We had one of these in Florida! Ask your dad…it was one of his favorite things to do…bug patrol. Guess the nut doesn’t fall from the tree…

We bought four of these yesterday. Ahahahahaha! They’re going to make great gifts for people NOB (assuming the customs guys don’t keep them).

Bloody brilliant I’d say. Is there a mandatory waiting period and a psych exam for purchase? Should there be?

Go get’em Mozzie Hunter.

I have been getting queries of where to get one of these fine electronic pest control machines. Go to Win-Fa Chinese buffet, located off Paseo Montejo across the street, south of Sam’s Club. They sell them at the cash register. Why a Chinese buffet would be selling these is anyone’s guess, but maybe we shouldn’t look too closely at the sweet and sour chicken.
