Why are Bug Zapper bulbs blacklights?

Correct. I watch where the flys tend to "sit". That's where I put it. Lately I noticed that using a small pail seems to attract them. I put the zapper over the pail and get more of them. I'm not sure why?

I've been planning to do this. I need a 3 volt DC supply. Most of those transformer wall warts are 5, 6, 9, 12, or higher voltage. I have a whole box of them and none are 3v.

It would if those beetles were attracted to a black light-- I don't think they are.

Those lights attract more skeeters than they kill. Get one for all your neighbors.

Try your local Goodwill store Many have a whole slew of smaller transformers Surely one of them would be a 3Vdc
