Abstract: A racquet-shaped swatting apparatus for killing insects comprises a racquet head having a racquet frame and frame opening. Closely spaced electrical wires extend across the frame opening for intercepting and killing insects in flight, while a plurality of light sources are provided on the racquet head for illuminating flying insects. Preferably, the electrical wires of the racquet head frame and the racquet head light sources can be simultaneously activated by the user. The swatting apparatus is particularly adapted for use in low lighting environments.
