Simple, functional, durable insect catcher tool - My family has had a bugzooka for more than 15 years. I bought this when my kids were little because I don't like killing insects and this tool allows me to capture most tiny critters without causing them harm, showing my kids the insects - spiders, moths, grasshoppers, even scorpions before releasing them into my backyard. My kids have grown up with this device and I have gifted it to other friends. It comes with a spare chamber attachment which is helpful. The design is simple and functional compared to other high tech, electronic bug capturing tools. You push the spring to prime and them push the button to activate the suction pump. Point the tip of the bugzooka as close to the insect as possible, like touching it, if possible, and push the button, and bam! you will find the insect trapped in the translucent chamber. Remember this is not a Dyson vacuum on max power suction. It's a simple mechanical device that works well when used properly. My only complaint with this product is that the front chamber is brittle and prone to breaking. Which is why they include a second one, but they need to include a total of 4 or 5 chambers because the acrylic is easy to break or crack and the "trapdoors" at the mouth of the front chamber often lose the spring which kinda kills its utility immediately. You also can't buy just the chamber for a reasonable price, you have to buy a whole new bugzooka! In spite of this complaint, we love the bugzooka and it is a standard fixture in our home. I'm sure my kids will look for it when they have their own homes too. I found a workaround after struggling to find replacement chambers after the first few years I had it. I would attach a small rubber balloon around the mouth of the chamber and cut an X in it, and pull the ballon back so the rubber flap with the X cut in it would sit squarely over the mouth of the chamber. This worked like a charm for almost 10 years. For a long time the bugzooka was not available on desertcart. When I found it again this year, I quickly bought a replacement and gifted my friend a set. They love it as well. If you are looking for a simple functional tool to catch and release bugs and insects in your house, instead of killing them, this tool is for you. It will last a long time and will serve you well. Review: Fear Bugs No More! - I am scared to death of spiders, and my house is really prone to them for some reason. They especially like to appear in hard to reach areas like corners of ceilings, high walls, etc. This device has saved me so many times from spiders and other random bugs I've lost count. I love using this thing so much more than my old solution, which was: old vacuum, battery-powered suction tube I used to use for spiders (which required removing and replacing the cap of the tube manually each time, which is NOT needed whatsoever for this sucker!). This insanely easy to use, no need for charging or batteries, all manual suction, and there's no need for you to come basically anywhere near the thing you're trying to capture. It's quick, clean, efficient, and I can TRUST it, EVEN once there are other bugs already inside (especially other spiders for example, which often make webs inside the tube, never fear, because this thing still does its' job even WITH webs inside!). The only issue I have ever encountered is the noise created by loading the spring-device after a year or so of use/wear. It's also not *entirely* ideal for sucking up spiders in the middle of the night while others are sleeping, but it's so much better than a vacuum or any other methods, and quick enough to not be too bothersome. Even if this thing stopped working tomorrow, I would be more than satisfied with my purchase and buy another right away. Would genuinely recommend this to anyone else who is afraid of spiders or bugs (in fact, via the safety of using this device, I feel a bit more confident and feel less fear now). ## Features - NO MESS, NO CHEMICALS: Easily capture bugs and insects without the need for harmful chemicals or messy splatters, keeping your home safe and clean - POWERFUL SUCTION TECHNOLOGY: Uses a spring-loaded mechanism to create instant vacuum suction, quickly capturing bugs from a safe distance - CATCH & RELEASE FOR GARDEN-FRIENDLY BUGS: relocate beneficial insects like ladybugs and praying mantis to your garden instead of exterminating them - LIGHTWEIGHT & EASY: Ergonomic design with simple trigger operation for effortless bug removal, perfect for kids and adults - NO BATTERIES NEEDED: Eco-friendly and always ready, the BugZooka works without electricity or batteries, making it a must-have household tool ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004OHAK5K | | Best Sellers Rank | #9,471 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #433 in Pest Control Traps | | Brand | BugZooka | | Brand Name | BugZooka | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 out of 5 stars 5,063 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00797824101050 | | Included Components | BugZooka WB100 Bug Catcher Vacuum for Fly | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 5.25"L x 3.75"W x 17.75"H | | Item Type Name | BugZooka WB100 Bug Catcher Vacuum for Fly | | Item Weight | 1.3 pounds | | Manufacturer | Trimax | | Manufacturer Part Number | WB100 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Manufacturer Warranty | | Material | Plastic | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | WB100 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Power Source | air_powered | | Product Dimensions | 5.25"L x 3.75"W x 17.75"H | | Style | Unique | | Style Name | Unique | | Target Species | Cockroach, Fly, Mosquito, Silverfish | | UPC | 797824101050 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** BugZooka - **Color:** Black - **Item Weight:** 1.3 pounds - **Material:** Plastic - **Number of Pieces:** 1 - **Product Dimensions:** 5.25"L x 3.75"W x 17.75"H - **Style:** Unique - **Target Species:** Cockroach, Fly, Mosquito, Silverfish - **UPC:** 797824101050 - **Unit Count:** 1 Count ## Images ![BugZooka Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle, Humane Bug Catcher for All Ages - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kzizB+QaL.jpg) ![BugZooka Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle, Humane Bug Catcher for All Ages - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81YS-0I8j-L.jpg) ![BugZooka Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle, Humane Bug Catcher for All Ages - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81EDqtDbJ1L.jpg) ![BugZooka Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle, Humane Bug Catcher for All Ages - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81mEef+CKIL.jpg) ![BugZooka Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle, Humane Bug Catcher for All Ages - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81KyMEFZ5lL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: would it catch a 3 inch roach that is 1 inch wide?** A: I don't think so. It is an awesome tool but I don't think the hole is big enough for that large of a bug. There is another tool called a spider catcher that I also like that should be able to get it. Here is a link. http://www.amazon.com/Fascinations-Spider-Catcher-Bug-Remover/dp/B001AMYFP8/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1408743170&sr=8-1&keywords=spider+catcher **Q: Will it work with stink bugs?** A: Yes! They don’t release nasty stank when u suck them up in there!! They make a regular vacuum stink. **Q: What type of batteries does this gadget require?** A: It does not require any. Compress the Bug Zooka, place it over the bug, depress the red button and walla the creature is sucked in. One thing, the bug has to be on a flat surface in order for this gadget to work. If it is in a corner or a crevice the Bug Zooka does not work, at least for me it didn't. **Q: how big is this thing** A: Everybody is incorrect, they give numbers all over the map. Amazon lists the tech specs: Item Dimensions 3.9 x 5.5 x 17.8 inches Item Weight 1.45 pounds. But I would like to know the diameter of the hose's end where the suctioning occurs! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Value buy. Simple, functional, durable insect catcher tool *by F***N on August 14, 2025* My family has had a bugzooka for more than 15 years.

Dollar for dollar this item costs more and offers less than other options. Please read my whole review if you want to know what your best options are, as I've spent the money trying different products and I will hopefully spare you from having to do so as well. As a preface, you should certainly know that I am your average Amazon customer and I have no conflict of interest whatsoever. I have never actually spent the time to write a review until now because of how outraged I am with the misleading reviews of this product. I bought this item along with a bug wand, an electrifying bug racket, and a flyswatter as it is now spring and the bugs are coming out. Out-of-the-box this item rattled as if there was a screw loose from within the lower chamber that sucks in the air. That may be the reason my unit does not function very well, however if that is not the reason, this item is absolutely worthless. The suction power it generates is not enough to suck up any bug unless you are literally about an inch away or less, and almost no bug will let you get that close without flying away. I would highly recommend the bug racket instead with one caveat: It certainly depends on what type of bug you're trying to kill, if the bug flies the racket is clearly the best option, if the bug does not fly, for example, a spider, an ant, or even a cockaroach the racket will not be your best option. I would recommend a bug wand for small to medium sized spiders (it clearly won't work for anything close to a tarantula-sized spider) and medium to large sized ants. As for cockroaches, the wand most likely will yield a mediocre performance at best. The bugzooka would have been a good option if it actually could generate the suction power it claims to generate. I don't currently know which gadget would be the best for cockroaches as they have never been a concern of mine. The bug racket was $11.50 and I personally believe it is the best money that I've spent in a while. One thing I love about the racket is that there is absolutely no cleanup involved, the bug literally sticks to the racket, I think due to the remnant static electricity, and then you just put it over the garbage, tap a couple times, and it falls dead into the garbage can, whereas with this unit, you have the mess of trying to dispose of a living bug which the bugzooka traps and does not make very easy to dispose of without potentially coming into contact with the living bug. The only way you can avoid coming into contact with the living bug is by waiting for the bug to die (which takes several days for most bugs and in the meantime they defecate all over the device), and even then it's not easy to dispose of the bug without getting very close or touching it. For the cost of this device it is disgracefully awful; in contrast, the bug racket is a complete steal for $12, God only knows how they were able to assemble the electrifying racket for less than $12 and make a profit. Obviously it was made in China, even so, the electrical components, the metal wiring, the parts seem like they would cost more than $12 in and of themselves. The bug wand which costs around $11 is certainly not an amazing device but it works well, not perfectly, but gets the job done (provided the bug is not huge) and is cheaper than this piece of junk. Disposal of the bug with the Bug wand is not ideal either but certainly better than this device. By the way, you do need two AA batteries for the bug racket and one 9 V battery for the bug wand. Also, if I am able to resolve my problems with this device, I promise to post an update. Geez, I can't believe I spent so much time on one review, I hope this time was worth it for one of you out there. ## Frequently Bought Together - Trimax - Bugzooka - Bug Vacuum for Adults - No Batteries or Toxic Chemicals, Safe Bug Vacuum with Long Nozzle - 1 Pack - PIC Wire Handle Fly Swatter, 2-Pack, (WIRE-2PK) - Thermacell E-Series Rechargeable Mosquito Repeller with 20’ Mosquito Protection Zone; Bug Spray Alternative; Scent Free --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/4245239-bugzooka-bug-vacuum-with-long-nozzle-humane-bug-catcher-all](https://www.desertcart.at/products/4245239-bugzooka-bug-vacuum-with-long-nozzle-humane-bug-catcher-all) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-09-23*
