Electronic Mosquito Racket Zaps Pests, Insects and Bugs
The Electronic Mosquito Racket is the best electronic gadget to zap mosquitos, insects and flies. Its clean, easy to use and very effective for the simple pest control needs in your office and home.
Try the Electronic Mosquito Racket to finish mosquitoes in a zap. It sure does look like a tennis racket, but it zaps pests instead of tennis balls. The internal charged mesh is powered by electic current which hunts the bugs. It is a very popular tool in tropical countries where mosquitos are abundant. The power source is a rechargable battery (Though you might get cheaper versions running on 2 pencil batteries). It is light weight, portable and easy to carry.
How it works?
Just press on the switch on the handle and a live electric current flows through the inner mesh. Wave the gadget around, and insects and mosquitos will get trapped in the wire mesh and cannot escape. The moment a mosquito, bug or fly comes touches it, it gets a electric shock and gets zapped. Keep waving it around and get hold of undetected bugs and pests.
Is it safe?
Very safe. It has an strong external protective mesh on both sides of the live electric inner mesh. Just do not poke your finger inside the protective mesh. Anyway current comes live when you activate the On button, but remember static charge can sometimes persist. It is environment friendly and very safe. Bigger bugs can cause some fine debris.
What is the power source?
It has a rechargable battery inside. With a simple knob, a 2 pin plug ejects out which you can simply plugin to your mains switch and charge it. A light indicator tells you when the charge is complete.
Availability?
Its easily available in most tropical developing countries like India, from small shops to street side vendors.
Cost?
Its costs around $4-8 depending on the quality of the insect zapper.

I used one in Indonesia and had the tim eof my life. Then found out it’s illegal to bring them into Australia. It’s actually listed on the Customs website here as a specific line item.

It’s illegal to bring them in to Australia without special permission. I wonder if some people imported them legally and sell them here. I could really use them to kill the annoying flies, especially in the summer!
It is definitely “satisfying” to use these rackets to kill those damn annoying mosquitos. Every house that I go to in Indonesia has at least one of these. Relatively inexpensive and easy to find.
Well, I guess they’re legal here in the States, because a coworker keeps one at his desk to zap flies.
It’s quite amusing to see him running through the hallways swinging away.
Where can I buy this thing?! There are a couple of similar products in the google ads, but they look much lower quality.
This is Old School…I’ve been using this in China for a couple of years. They make battery powered versions, as well as Electric wall socket rechargeable. 220V coursing through the finger hurts like hell too.
