Here's an easy one for you that won't cost you a cent.
Move the trap close to an outlet it will still trap those pesky skeeters.

IMO most are expensive (even the systems that you can build) and barely provide the kWh advertised. They will more than likely fail to work much sooner than advertised.Leave a comment:

Hi I think I may have something that can help.
Originally posted by Steveareno View PostI have an electric mosquito trap that I would like to install in my back yard. I have no outlets in the vicinity of the location where I want to put the trap. I've been searching for some sort of solar or battery powered outlet that I could place in the back yard and plug the trap into. It uses about the same amount of energy as a 40 watt light-bulb and would run 24/7.
Is there such a thing as a standalone outdoor electrical outlet? I have a shed in the vicinity that is not wired for power. I was thinking I could attach the outlet to that and plug in the mosquito trap there. So is there any way to get a little electricity back there without completely wiring the shed?
Best wishes,

up out of the ground for protection. Not much of a job for an electrician to connect the ends, with a GFI outlet.

Now for a bug trap, I don't think they use much power and might be possible to do for say $1000 to $2000, but you can run a real circuit for that with standard power and used for other purposes.Leave a comment:
