Stop pesky fruit flies and mosquitoes from taking over your home. The Mosalogic flying insect trap plug-in set is 28% off during Amazon's October Prime Day 2023 sale

The pack includes two devices, perfect for covering more ground in your space. Each device features a UV light that attracts bugs, as well as a glue card that can capture flying insects without toxicity and smells. Once the bugs are stuck on the glue card, they can't escape. This device can also double as a nightlight.

The LED lights can run on smart mode or night mode. In smart mode, the device will detect movement and its light will turn on or off automatically. In night mode, the device will stay lit until you turn it off, attracting and killing bugs while you sleep. Refill glue cards sold separately. 

"I have my trap plugged in next to my kitchen sink, as many of our fruit flies get in through there," CBS Essentials senior editor Lily Rose says. "I'm always shocked by just how many bugs I find in the trap when I change it out. This device really gets everything. It's a must-have in my apartment."

What we like about the Mosalogic flying insect trap plug-in set:

  • It's easy to use.
  • It traps and kills bugs without annoying sounds, irritating scents or harmful chemicals. 
  • It offers multiple light modes to suit your needs.
  • This two-pack will cover more ground in your space. 

When is Amazon Big Deal Days?

The Amazon Big Deal Days sales event (also known as October Prime Day) kicks off at midnight PT (3:00 a.m. ET) on Tuesday, Oct. 10 and runs through Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2023.


What else is on sale during Amazon Big Deal Days?

During the Amazon Big Deal Days sales event, you'll also find big discounts across all of Amazon's departments, including hometechkitchenfitness and so much more. This is the perfect time to kick off (and potentially even finish) your holiday shopping, without having to deal with Black Friday crowds and having the gifts you want to purchase being sold out. You'll find deals on luggage for your holiday travels, too.


Do you need to be a Prime Member to shop Prime Big Deal Days deals?

While some of the best Amazon Prime Big Deal Days offers are Prime-exclusive or invite-only, there will also be tons of deals that are open to all shoppers. So even if you don't have an Amazon Prime membership, there will be deals available to you.

If you want to shop the best deals, though, you'll want to sign up for a 30-day free trial of Amazon Prime. Prime memberships costs $14.99 per month or $139 per year, and include access to Amazon Prime Video (Thursday Night Football) and a number of other great perks.


What other stores are holding competing early Black Friday sales?

Savvy shoppers know that any of the Amazon Prime Day events offer the perfect time to find tens of thousands of popular products on sale from Amazon, including some at their lowest price of the year. However, many other popular online and retail merchants, such as WalmartTargetBest Buy and even your favorite department stores, such as Macy's, all tend to kick off sales either at the same time or around the same dates as Amazon Big Deal Days.


Do products on sale during Amazon Big Deal Days sell out?

You bet they do -- and sometimes things sell out within hours. If you see something on sale that you want to get your hands on during the Amazon Big Deal Days sale, order it right away. Often, quantities are limited. Once a product is sold out at the sale price, Amazon won't always restock right away and when it does restock, the sale price likely won't be offered.


Can products bought from Amazon during Amazon Big Deal Days be returned?

Unless it specifically states in the product description or near the "add to cart" and "buy now" buttons that the product being offered on sale is a final sale or not returnable, Amazon's regular return policy for that product will be honored. 

On the right side of a product description on Amazon, just below the "buy now" button (and where it says "ships from and sold by"), look for the heading that says "returns." 

If the text says, "eligible for return, refund or replacement within 30 days of receipt," that's the return policy that will be honored. However, you may be responsible for paying return shipping to Amazon, unless you drop off the product as a Whole Foods or Kohl's, which accepts some Amazon returns.
