You’ll want this camping lantern to attract mosquitoes!

NEWS – Usually, using a light when you’re camping or sitting around outdoors simply attracts mosquitoes to bite and bother you, but this little ENKEEO 2-in-1 Camping Lantern Bug Zapper is designed to lure them in and zap them.  In addition to the light for you to see by, the lantern also has a 360nm-400nm ultraviolet light to attract mosquitoes.  The bugs are lured in and zapped, providing you with a 16 x 16 ft² mosquito-free zone.

The lantern can hang from the hook or sit on a tabletop with the hook folded away.  It’s equipped with a 2000mAh USB-rechargeable battery for 20 hours run time with lantern-only feature (low light, ≥ 30 lumen) or 15 hours for zapper-only feature.  There’s a plastic cage to protect you from touching the inner wire; the lampshade is removable.

It’s IPX6-rated, meaning it’s highly waterproof and perfect for outdoor use.  It also means that you can clean away the zapped insects simply by running water over the lantern.  It measures 3.46″ x 5.08″ and weighs 0.44 pounds, so it easily adds to your camping gear without increasing your burden.

The ENKEEO 2-in-1 Camping Lantern Bug Zapper is available in black, orange, or green.  It’s $24.99 at Amazon.
