With summer arriving this week, many of us will start up the back yard BBQ!

The one thing that can be a bother during the backyard fun are mosquitoes! The Wall Street Journal says to forget about sprays and candles to get rid of the pests and invest in the Mega-Catch Ultra Mosquito Trap!

It’s designed for mosquito haters who are “more into full-on slaughter” of the pests.

This “less of a hassle” gadget is powered by electricity instead of a propane tank and when plugged in, it’s LED’s, black lights, and heating elements lure mosquitoes…get this…within 1.5 ACRES!

A separate tank can be used to emit carbon dioxide in a pattern that mimics human breathing.

The gadget could save you a lifetime’s worth of itching, but it isn’t cheap, clocking in at a cool $599!
