I have a mercury vapor yard lights about 100 feet away
from my house, on a 20 foot pole. It attracts a large number of bugs.
I mounted a bug zapper to the pole 5 feet from the ground. Many of the 
bugs around the yard light eventually make it down to the zapper. It gets 
packed solid with dead bugs and I have to clean it out about once a 
month with a blow dryer. The yard light is a must, so the bugs are going to 
be there anyway. The zapper is just a convenient way to do some of those 
bugs in. I don't seem to get many bugs around the house.
