Zapping Bugs


This is not a tennis racket…

 









Or a badminton racket…



 













Or a racket ball racket…


 















This is - An Electronic Mosquito Trap ! !








 

That metal mesh in the middle? It's electrified. 
 It is so simple to use, it's ridiculous. Just swing away. 
It makes a fantastically loud *SNAP* when you snag a bug. 
There is also a brilliant /FLASH/ as their tiny, annoying, 
potentially malaria-carrying bodies contact the mesh and get fried.

This was new to me... but apparently in college, Jonathon and his roommates used to hit each other with these. Jonathon said it gives a pretty good jolt. (Just in case you're ever mad at Brandon while in India...) :)

Cheri - I will have to keep that in mind! I sort of can't believe they sell these in the US...they are totally dangerous.

So has it become a competition yet? Do you guys have running totals for your numbers of "hits"??
