Probably.

My theory is that a bug zapper attracts beasties not just from my yard, but
from the whole neighborhood. I base this on my one exposure to this device --
a party where there were NO bugs until the host turned on his b-z. And then
they were everywhere! We had to escape indoors to avoid those who got lost
on their from the neighbor's to the zapper (or who just wanted to drop into
the cheese dip to cool off before proceeding to the electric char).
