On Amazon.com they are quite expensive, in the Netherlands you can usually find them for €5 to €10 in summer.
It easy because you don't need a wall or surface to flatten them, if your fast enough/insect is slow enough you can hit them in air, usually the remains stick to the swatter, especially if you keep the button down and the electricity going. So no more squished insect sticking to your walls, windows or tables.
If you have a lot of insects bothering you this is a great buy. |
Ah. Okay, I see. Thanks for the elucidation. I really do appreciate it. (I can't see a big future trying to zap scorpions, though....)
