No buggin' out this summer: This indoor-outdoor zapper is down to $27 (50% off)

Summer unofficially starts next weekend — hooray! It's a season associated with so many things we love, like family barbecues, the beach and travel. But balmy weather brings something else we don't exactly love: bugs. Yep, those annoying gnats, mosquitoes and flies will stick around as long as the temps are up, which just ends up cramping our summer style. One quick and easy way to get rid of them? A bug zapper, and as part of Amazon's early Memorial Day sale, the top-rated Liba Electric Bug Zapper is down to just $27 (from $54). Better tell those blood-thirsty biters to buzz off!

Why is it a good deal? 💰

We love a good Memorial Day markdown, and this discount drops the price to just $2 more than its all-time low. Better scoop it up while you can save 50% — and before the patio becomes a full-on pest party.

Why do I need this? 🤔

The Liba Electric Bug Zapper uses blue-violet light to attract bugs, then blasts them into oblivion. It has an impressive range of 1,600 square feet to help protect you and your loved ones, wherever you may be.

The zapper is waterproof, so you can use it on your porch or in your backyard, but it can also be used inside (looking at you, gnats) thanks to a motorless design and fireproof ABS casing. There's even a child safety screen to keep little fingers out.

This gadget is super easy to set up and operate: Just plug it in, turn it on and enjoy the fruits of its labor. You can hang it from the included hook or leave it out on your counter — either way, it'll take out bugs like a champ.

What reviewers say 💬

More than 3,100 Amazon shoppers give the Liba a perfect five-star rating, and based on their feedback, we understand why.

Pros 👍

One fan called the Liba "fantastic" before adding, "Turn this product on at night, and you will rid your room of every flying insect before morning ... You gotta see and hear to believe how well it works."

A fellow happy customer described it as "very effective" before sharing one major tip: "The more bugs it kills, the more it should be cleaned," they said. "There are so many [bugs] that some fall out of it. It does its job extremely well. I am very satisfied with this item; [I] will be getting one more for the front porch. It's very quiet, and the buzzing sounds only last about a second per bug."

"I've tried a few different things to get rid of those annoying winged insects, but they either didn't work right or they made a mess," shared a third. "I bought this to help eradicate the fruit fly population, and it did exactly that. I'll be sitting on the couch, and all I hear is a small pop — and buh-bye, fly! I wish I'd bought this a long time ago!"

Cons 👎

"This is the best bug zapper I've purchased so far," wrote a mostly content customer. "The only downside, which can't be helped, is the occasional burning smell of a fly getting roasted by the heat element."

"Works well," said a final buyer. "The only downfall is that the cord is fairly short, so you’ll likely need an extension cord."
