In the area where I live, there aren't as many mosquitoes as there are gnats, which are much smaller and faster than mosquitoes, making them harder to spot and kill by hand or with a fly swatter. For this reason, I got this particular device, intending to get rid of them without having to "chase" them. After about a month of use, I have to say that the device works, but under certain conditions. If there is a person in the room where the device is operating, the gnats will prefer to bite you rather than go to the light of the device. If there are other light sources (night lights, light from outside, etc.), it also reduces the device's effectiveness. For the best possible result, you should, for example, close all lights, doors, windows, and any light source in general in the room where you want to kill the mosquitoes/gnats, and let the device operate for at least 2-3 hours. In a test room of about 25 sq. m. where I had seen that there was a gnat, I followed the above procedure, and when I returned to the room after about 3 hours, I saw that the gnat was dead on the wires of the machine. So it worked, but only if the conditions I mentioned regarding the lights and the duration are met. As for the device, it seems "OK" in terms of build quality, it has a charging cable about 1-1.5m long with USB Type A (the classic one that computers have) to USB Type C connectors. There is no transformer in the box, but I used the charging transformer from an old mobile phone (5V/2A) and it worked fine. The box also contains a plastic brush to clean the dead insects from the wires. For its operation, besides the well-known "blue" light it has to attract mosquitoes (which is subjective whether it is annoying or not), it also has a small fan that can theoretically "suck" a mosquito if it gets close enough. I consider the fan on the 1st speed to be tolerable in terms of noise, but on the 2nd and 3rd speeds, it may be annoying for some when sleeping; however, it can be turned off, and the device can operate only with the light. Overall, I would say that at its current price (up to €20), the device is worth it, as long as you know how to use it.

I use it in the bedroom and I have to say that this year I have not used the insecticide. Yes, it is effective, not as much as the insecticide, but it is important that you are not inhaling chemicals.

These insect traps require specific handling. You have to activate them a few hours before sleep with the door of the room closed so that the insects go to the lamp. If you turn it on when you go to sleep, the mosquitoes will prefer to bite you first and then go for burning.

I consider this specific insect trap to be somewhat expensive (when you can find similar ones for 5 euros, for example at jumbo, which are also effective), but it offers a relaxing purple light for sleep that is not bothersome.

It also has a three-speed fan to suck in approaching insects, which is noisy, but fortunately it operates independently so if the sound bothers you in the bedroom you can either not use it or put it on the first setting which is somewhat quiet.

In general, I am satisfied since I have not turned on the insecticide and it has indeed burned many flying insects. Mosquitoes, flies, moths, and other larger insects.
