At home, we often come across a number of flying insects including flies, mosquitoes, wasps and hornets. If they’re an issue at home, an effective insect killer can be quite an investment. Provided that you make the right choice. The Hoont Electronic Indoor Bug Zapper is a safe buy, especially, if you’re tired of running behind gnats and fruit flies with an electric fly swatter, or punching up Google for new and innovative DIYs of killing mosquitoes.
For an indoor bug zapper, hygiene is something you can never compromise at whatever cost. For instance, how do you get rid of the dead insects, does it release nay odors etc. If you’re in the middle of making a purchase but don’t know where to begin, you’ve come to the right place.

Hoont Bug Zapper: Final Verdict
The Hoont Electronic Indoor Bug Zapper is a well-designed, effective insect killer that uses 20-Watt blasts over a distance of 6,000 Sq. Ft. We particularly found the ability to kill insects unselectively as a big plus, since you can kill mosquitoes and any other bugs that would otherwise be hard to contain at home. There is a tray at the bottom of the device, so whenever any insect would be kill, it will simply collect over the tray. All these, added to the nice choice make it a recommendable choice for home, office, hotel use.
