I just spent Memorial Day weekend in northern Michigan, and to say it was midges season there feels like a gross understatement. Every time my friends and I went outside, those annoying bugs were swarming thickly until our host pulled out some curious-looking fly swatters hed found on Amazon .

Shaped like compact tennis rackets, this pair of USB-charged bug zappers very quickly took care of all the flying insects in the backyard. And at the risk of sounding bloodthirsty, they were also extremely fun to wave around, killing bugs. A built-in purple light even helps attracts mosquitoes and other insects to the swatter, where they are quickly dispatched by the electrified stainless steel and aluminum mesh with a satisfying zapping noise. Best of all, bug bodies dont get caught in the mesh, so theres no gross buildup to deal with or clean.

Its both the time and the season to buy: Amazon is currently offering 11% off plus a 10% off coupon on a set of two , making purchasing a set just a few dollars more than buying a single swatter.
