Trimax - Bugzooka - Bug Vacuum for Adults - No Batteries or Toxic Chemicals, Safe Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle - 1 Pack

Many improvements since the first one I purchased a few years back.Tube extends for a higher reach.Two bug catcher nozzle traps.Wall hanger.Better suction.Bugs don't stand a chance!

The BugZooka WB100 is a game-changer for pest control! It safely catches flies and bugs without chemicals or mess. Lightweight, easy to use, and rechargeable—it’s perfect for homes and outdoors. The suction is strong yet harmless, making it eco-friendly. Highly recommend for a hassle-free, humane bug-catching solution!

Truly an essential item for any abode. My step-father had one when I was young, and now I, too, am a proud owner of a BugZooka! The wall mount is pretty nifty, as well.

Bug removal has turned from a chore to an enjoyable sport. I feel bitchin' slamming the plunger against my hip to "reload" before taking out the next target one-handedly. Sometimes the bazooka doesn't work the first time (insect position, distance, and physics come into play), but it is quick enough to "reload" that a follow-up blast does the trick. I have been able to remove wasps from inside the home and release them outdoors, but better yet, suck up destructive asparagus beetles from fronds (and those little buggers can be elusive). With the smaller beetles, it is easy to use multiple times in a row to collect a bunch, pull off the nozzle container and shake them silly, then take off the cover and pour them into a mason jar of soapy water for their final demise. Hope it keeps its plunger power for a long time, because summer's buggy season is coming up... and I'm equipped for battle!

So easy to use and works perfectly

Very effective and GENTLE on bumble bees .Also fine for butterflies too.Also long reach.But it does need to be within about an inch away from the trapdoors.

I have long wished for some magic wand, to be able to zap the ants that crawl around on my wall, close to the heat of the desk lamp sitting on the back of my desk.I think some of them are termites, or ants with wings, which are no doubt termites, to be sure.But some of them are smaller, actual ants, and I have put out ant baits, taped to the wall behind the desk, or laid out on top of the desk, behind my computer screen, where they are readily accessible to the ants.Of course, how do you know how many they have eliminated?You don't. But you do know that you still have some, because you see them running around, and crawling across the top of the computer, and darting around under your nose, on any and everything on your desk.I think some of them may also be fruit flies, because they dart around spasmodically, like a crazy person.Maybe a strictly fruit diet drives you crazy.And so I looked through the offerings of bug zappers and vacuums, and this one looked to be the most promising. Plus, the reviews for it were believable, and seemed to indicate that it was a serious product, with real results, within reason.So I got it, but haven't had occasion to use it yet - although I did see an ant running across the top of my computer screen, and just out of force of habit, I reached up and nabbed it with my thumb and forefinger and squished it, before I could think of my new bug zapper.I was just a trifle puzzled when I went to put it together, because the ends of the various tubes didn't seem to fit together, and I thought maybe something was missing. But I found that one slides down into the other, and when I figured it out, everything went together perfectly.And I even found a place to hang it on the wall, unobtrusively, in the corner, by the doorway, just mere feet away from where I sit when I'm at the computer.I feel like Buck Rogers, with my handy-dandy ray gun hanging at the ready - which it is - just waiting for those pesky ants to start crawling again.It's usually at night, when I'm at the computer, when I notice them frantically crawling around, aimlessly, sometimes running straight, then making a full circle, then reversing themselves and going down again.I love that you just cock it and fire it, sort of like a BB gun, and don't have to wait on it building up a charge, or using electricity, or batteries to run down.I haven't scored with it yet, but it could very well be that they are laying low, since they can plainly see that I am prepared for them, and will zap them at the drop of a hat.* I just scored my first victory: I zapped an ant, and he disappeared, right before my very eyes.I feel omnipotent now - sitting here with my formidable Buck Rogers ray gun at the ready.

The Bugzooka works well, it doesn't require batteries, and it's long enough that my kids will use it even on the nastiest-looking spiders. But the little plastic doors and door mechanism on the tip are delicate. One day they just fell off and disappeared. Fortunately, the box comes with two tips. We will guard the second one carefully. The manufacturer sells replacement tips at three for $10, but shipping to Canada is $50! and Amazon.ca doesn't carry them.

I love this product. Works very well although for spiders you have to be right on top of them to suck them in (Them critters have a good grip on walls, heh heh heh). The ribbed plastic pump part does seem a bit thin and I hope it will not develop a leak. Other than that a great item.

This item does not work! Needs negative stars! Pathetic suction does not capture an insect unless the "muzzle" is practically touching it. Managed to catch a spider but the poor thing's legs got damaged as it was sucked into the tube. I managed to pick up a few dead flies on the windowsill. Otherwise, nothing lets you come up close enough for the tiny suction to work. Don't waste your money. I am going to recycle it into the plastics curbside blue bin. Back to a flyswatter (fliers) and an empty yoghurt container (crawlers) for me. At least with the yoghurt container, you can catch and release successfully and without harming the insect.

I have no idea how this item received so many positive reviews. Dollar for dollar this item costs more and offers less than other options. Please read my whole review if you want to know what your best options are, as I've spent the money trying different products and I will hopefully spare you from having to do so as well. As a preface, you should certainly know that I am your average Amazon customer and I have no conflict of interest whatsoever. I have never actually spent the time to write a review until now because of how outraged I am with the misleading reviews of this product.I bought this item along with a bug wand, an electrifying bug racket, and a flyswatter as it is now spring and the bugs are coming out. Out-of-the-box this item rattled as if there was a screw loose from within the lower chamber that sucks in the air. That may be the reason my unit does not function very well, however if that is not the reason, this item is absolutely worthless. The suction power it generates is not enough to suck up any bug unless you are literally about an inch away or less, and almost no bug will let you get that close without flying away. I would highly recommend the bug racket instead with one caveat:It certainly depends on what type of bug you're trying to kill, if the bug flies the racket is clearly the best option, if the bug does not fly, for example, a spider, an ant, or even a cockaroach the racket will not be your best option. I would recommend a bug wand for small to medium sized spiders (it clearly won't work for anything close to a tarantula-sized spider) and medium to large sized ants. As for cockroaches, the wand most likely will yield a mediocre performance at best. The bugzooka would have been a good option if it actually could generate the suction power it claims to generate. I don't currently know which gadget would be the best for cockroaches as they have never been a concern of mine.The bug racket was $11.50 and I personally believe it is the best money that I've spent in a while. One thing I love about the racket is that there is absolutely no cleanup involved, the bug literally sticks to the racket, I think due to the remnant static electricity, and then you just put it over the garbage, tap a couple times, and it falls dead into the garbage can, whereas with this unit, you have the mess of trying to dispose of a living bug which the bugzooka traps and does not make very easy to dispose of without potentially coming into contact with the living bug. The only way you can avoid coming into contact with the living bug is by waiting for the bug to die (which takes several days for most bugs and in the meantime they defecate all over the device), and even then it's not easy to dispose of the bug without getting very close or touching it.For the cost of this device it is disgracefully awful; in contrast, the bug racket is a complete steal for $12, God only knows how they were able to assemble the electrifying racket for less than $12 and make a profit. Obviously it was made in China, even so, the electrical components, the metal wiring, the parts seem like they would cost more than $12 in and of themselves.The bug wand which costs around $11 is certainly not an amazing device but it works well, not perfectly, but gets the job done (provided the bug is not huge) and is cheaper than this piece of junk. Disposal of the bug with the Bug wand is not ideal either but certainly better than this device.By the way, you do need two AA batteries for the bug racket and one 9 V battery for the bug wand. Also, if I am able to resolve my problems with this device, I promise to post an update. Geez, I can't believe I spent so much time on one review, I hope this time was worth it for one of you out there.
