Flying insects will always be more attracted to humans than to lights, however they will 
gravitate to the strongest light source in the area. 

We suggest when flying insects are very aggressive in your area, try and stay away from 
the bug zapper for a few days with only the light of the zapper on. This will help lure 
them into its trap and kill off the majority of insects.  Depending on the insect population, 
two weeks or more may be necessary to significantly reduce the population. 

 

When determining where to place the unit for best results, locate a spot away from human 

activity. Select a location within the insect’s natural habitat including near bushes, low 

trees and ground coverage such as Ivy. This will ensure the best possible results. Device 

should also be placed between 6’-7’ above the ground using the included chain. Suitable 

hanging locations include from a tree, mounting pole, or other free standing object.
