The grid, held on only by the electric wires, fell down contacting the back of his hand. He still had his thumb on the button so it was frying the back of his hand!
Yeah, we are going to run out to Lowe's and buy a few more of these things. At least one for each hand. Connie said she zapped 9 of them this morning, and I got 5 of them when I went over to the garage to turn on the AC. Between the mosquito magnets and these things, we might actually make a dent in the population of these monsters. Of course, I'm sure it doesn't help that we have cattle, horses, and dog breeders all around us.
