Approximately 72,000 Stinger BK series insect and mosquito zappers are being recalled because the internal insect kill grid can detach inside the housing. This defect can cause the zapper to pose an electrical shock hazard to anyone handling the unit.

Kaz has received three reports of the internal grid detaching, though no injuries have been reported; consumers should stop using the units and return them for a full refund.
