Not tyring to be negative but what do you expect from a bug zapper? Just try this, a client of mine did. He setup a drum under the light for a week during the summer. Understand bugs are free if solar power also free, 110 volt not much power BUT this is not a replacement for a feeder. Anyway he weighted the bugs, <3 ozs in a week when he thought they were as heavy as at any time all year. It will take alot of bugs to makeup for one 50 lb bag of food. I guess my point is it takes awhile to replace the cost of a unit. It is all about your goal, if a six pack and watching fish pop bugs is one of them go for it. ;\)

Deb you have mentioned many times about mosquitoes and gambusia and I have not mentioned anything but it keeps popping up. There are numerous research studeis that show juvenille bluegill will eat as much mosquito larvae as gambusia. Basically if you have bluegill you do not have mosquitoes in the pond. We get lots of calls on this. There are either pot holes of water or really thick vegetation keeping the fish out. Gambusia are fine I have sold them but not neccesary if stocking for the purpose of mosquito control when they have bluegill, IMHO.
