This Is Shocking! By Eggy on Dec 05, 2008 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

This attractive bug zapper makes you feel like Anna Kournikova while you make the world a safer place. However, you don't really need to be very athletically inclined to be quite effective with this bug taming tool.

It is designed for indoor or outdoor use and operates for a long time on two AA batteries (not included). Its ambidextrous design supports seamless execution by either left handed or right handed operators.

The Racquet Zapper Electronic Fly Swatter effectively neutralizes flies, gnats, mosquitoes and other flying pests. The easy to see yellow on/off switch elicits a confidence inspiring tone, while the green 'power on' light provides a secondary indicator confirming that the racket is in 'armed status'.

The Racquet Zapper does not result in any chemical smell or residue. It is safe to use around children and pets, though be careful about inadvertently touching any tongues or wet noses when the racquet is in an armed state. Unlike traditional fly swatters, the raquet works in mid-air and does not result in any unsightly marks on walls.

The Racquet Zapper is lightweight and easy to take with you to the beach, camping, picnics, parties, sporting events, or barbecues. It is on my 'must bring' list when I visit the mountains during the summer. I have bought several of these over the past 7 or 8 years, some have been given away and at least one broke (not this exact model). Fortunately they are quite reasonably priced.
