I want a bug zapper. Is that mean?
You know, the kind that sizzle the bugs on hot summer nights?
Mean or not, I think we'll need one. We are near a lake and there is too much moisture not to get one.
Re: I want a bug zapper. Is that mean?
If you're concerned that it's mean, get a bat house. The bats will eat all your bugs for you.
Personally I don't think that killing bugs that bite you is mean, but that's JMHO.
I don?t think its mean. It?s not like you tell the bugs to go into the zapper. If they?re dumb enough to fly into the light, that?s on them.
Plus, as someone who gets eaten alive by mosquitoes. Eff em, I hate the freaking things.
People buy bats on purpose?! Ewww. Bats igg me out more than bugs.
You don't buy the bats, you buy the house that attracts the bats to live in it. I never said it was something I would do, just an alternative to zapping them. I don't see the need for an alternative, but thought I'd put one out there.
You probably all have bats in your area, you just don't notice them. Me, I'm married to a science geek so he points them out all the time till I freak myself out and go in the house.
Me: That's wierd. Look at those big birds - and at nighttime.
DH: Those aren't birds.
(scuffle ensues as I knock him over to get in the house).
