    Default Bug zapper

    Anyone still using them? I have a problem with moths on my back porch. I don’t mind them so much but they leave behind dirt spot all over the porch railing and ceiling. Thinking about hanging a bug zapper. Or is there a better way?

    The world was a better place when the sounds of a bug zapper, the smell of charcoal and the taste of water straight from the hose pipe were a mainstay in everyone’s weekend plans.

    They got light bulbs out now that have the zapper built into them. I'll have to try to remember where I saw them.

    I remember the satisfaction of a good moth or horsefly getting into the zapper and frying for a minute or two.
