Related: About this forumOur mosquito zapper seems to be working!
We got 2 "bug zappers", one has a mosquito lure in it.
One is hanging over the chicken yard, next to Mr. Dixie's tool shed/cave
and one is by our carport/front door area.
The city has not sprayed again this year plus we have had a lot of rain every week, so figure the the lil biters would be plentiful.
But, can walk around the yard at dusk bite free, which is amazing.
Happily, the zappers last a long long time..or at least the ones I have had years ago did.

they sell the zapper and the lure.
but you will want to review several "bug zappers" for price and quality.
They can be bought anywhere you buy a rake, even on Amazon.
Lowe's, Home Depot, Ace Hardware, etc.
zappers run about 30-35 bucks, but last many seasons, even during rainstorms, if you take care of them, put them away for winter, etc.
We have ours on a timer.

on Amazon.
Was looking because we have to get fresh ones, and this is a damn good price, considering the zapper site sells
ONE lure for 8.00.
