Not overkill. You’re obviously not from swampy areas where mosquitos feel like horseflies when they bite. Also, notice he’s in bed. There is little form of torture as effective as mosquito whine in your ears while you’re trying to sleep.

Apparently you have not seen the electric lighters or I think in this cast the ones you just push the one side in the opposite direction and you have fire.
That is so worth the time and effort IMO. Just to show off even. And if you can put it together without instructions you should be able to know how to handle it. Not everyone is an idiot
If you lived where I do that would seem like the best invention ever. And yes I would use it in my house. You can only burn your house down if you’re an idiot. Just steer clear of the curtains and problem solved.
I have seen multiple references to catching mosquitos… I am thinking not mate. Catching is different than utterly vaporizing. I would have accepted words such as: mosquito-killing, burning, destroying, smoldering, intimidating, gassifying, life-removing, splatting, removing, torturing or even incapacitating, but not catching… Good luck with your product line, perhaps the SPCA or Animal control could use some larger “catchers”.
