WingRepel 20W Electric Fly Zapper with Upgraded Thickened

I never thought I’d have one of these in my kitchen because most of the ones I’ve seen are industrial and look really awful.
As electric fly zappers go, this would be a swipe right on a dating app – it’s actually neat and tidy looking, and doesn’t offend the eye at all.
However, as other reviewers have mentioned the flex is incredibly annoying as it’s so short which really limits where you can place this as it works best in a raised area – and trailing extension leads do ruin the aesthetics! Apart from that though, it’s a great little zapper and takes no prisoners when it’s operating – house flies, mosquitos and fruit flies . Sadly it did zap a moth (they are not on my death list, and would normally be rescued). It does work in daylight hours, as well as after dark, possibly because it’s still much brighter than the rest of the room.
The zapping noise is a bit of a shock (not as much as it is to the flies though!) to start off with as it’s quite loud, but you quickly get used to it, and the fact it represents the demise of another unwanted insect becomes strangely pleasurable. Also, unlike ,any other anti fly products like the liquid bottles (which involve prolonged deaths) this is instant.
Overall I think it’s priced reasonably, works really well, looks pretty good for what it is, but one star deducted for the flex length.
