B&M, the discount retailer, has introduced a solar-powered device called Solar Buzzkill, priced at £8, to help combat the surge in fly populations during the UK's summer heatwave. The product uses UV light to attract and kill flying pests, operating entirely on solar energy without the need for batteries.
Product Details and Availability
The Solar Buzzkill is described by B&M as a device that "attracts and kills flying pests" using the sun's rays as its energy source. It requires daylight to function and features a UV light to lure insects. The retailer has placed a 'Hurry Low Stock' warning on the item, indicating limited availability and potential imminent sell-out.
B&M states: "Using the sun's rays as its energy source, the Solar Buzzkill insect and bug zapper attracts and kills flying pests. Solar powered, requires daylight to function, UV light to attract pests, easy install." The device is only available for in-store collection, with no online home delivery option.
How to Purchase
Shoppers can check stock levels at their nearest B&M store using the online store finder. By entering their postcode, customers can see which stores currently stock the fly repellent. Given the low stock warning, interested buyers are advised to act quickly to secure the product.
Context of Fly Infestation
The UK has recently experienced a heatwave, with red weather warnings from the Met Office. Warm weather creates ideal conditions for flies to flourish, often drawing them indoors seeking food and refuge. Many Britons find it difficult to keep flies away, prompting retailers like B&M to expand their pest control offerings.
