Anyone for Zap-A-Bug tennis?

Pest control without pesticides?

Zap-A-Bug

6 December 2007 18:24 GMT / By Katie Scott

Now it is winter, bugs are less of a problem, but for those of you heading off for a winter break, there are no flies on this gadget.

The Zap-A-Bug looks much like a tennis racquet but electrical pulses run down its "strings". Any unfortunate insect that lands on the raquet will be no more.

The device has a rubberized non-stick handle for firm gripping, an in-use light indicator so that users know when it is live, and a child safety switch.

It comes with a pouch and cleaning brush, priced $19.99 and $4.99 shipping (within the US).
