Electric Bug Zapper Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunities and Forecast, 2018-2028

Global Electric Bug Zapper Market is anticipated to grow during the forecast period due to the increasing awareness among consumers on the advancements within bug removal product launches by the companies and the growing issue of catering the surging cases of vector-borne diseases.

An electric bug zapper is a device that helps in eliminating insects by attracting them through minimal lighting. It is also known as electrical discharge insect control system, electric insect killer, or (insect) electrocutor trap. It works through wires which are connected by a high voltage and an electrical grid and it works when the insect comes within its contact and get trapped.

Initially, the bug enters the space between the wire-mesh grids as it travels in the direction of the light, completing the electrical circuit. Electric bug zappers can draw and kill more than 10,000 insects in a single evening. Although bug zappers aren't intended to differentiate between various species of insects, they frequently kill insects drawn to ultraviolet light . That is how an electric bug zapper functions for the removal of harmful insects and pests.

Increasing Product Launches to Boost Market Growth

In order to cater to the growing market, many companies are introducing advanced products so that they can substantially gain an edge in terms of market share within the global electric bug zapper market. For instance, in 2021, Insect-O-Cutor introduced a new electric bug zapper called PlusZap to eliminate flying insects in indoor, as well as outdoors. The bug zapper includes pre-installed staggered UV lamps and a grid to produce an effective light output to draw flying insects. This product offers anti-blow out folds that are designed to easily remove and offer safe maintenance. It comes in 16 Watts or 30 Watts variants with a catch tray. Furthermore, in 2022, the GLOUE launched the electric bug zapper that draws bugs with its intense light emissions. The insects will then be electrocuted by the highly charged metal grids. Electric bug zapper is suitable for kitchen, living room, bedroom, bathroom, warehouse, and basement. Therefore, the launching of new electric bug zappers with certain features fuels the market for electric bug zappers during the forecast period.
