KV of the electric pest swatter STUN-G

HIPPS LABORATORIES Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Naoki Shigeta), which brings excellent overseas products to Japan, has started full-scale sales of the next-generation electric pest swatter developed by Lavee International Co. Ltd. (Brand: ZD ZERO) and a huge hit in Taiwan, as the domestic Japanese brand 'STUN-G', from June 7, 2026 (Sunday) at its official store and other locations.

This product is a highly anticipated item that gathered overwhelming support of over 35 million yen from approximately 8,800 people on 'ZECZEC', Taiwan's largest crowdfunding site, under its local name 'ZAPPER+'. It brings a revolution to cockroach and pest control for the upcoming season with the new common sense of 'no insecticides (chemicals)' and 'no crushing and messing up the surroundings'.

The Sentiment Behind the Domestic Japanese Brand Name 'STUN-G' (Trademark Pending)

In introducing 'ZAPPER+', which gained overwhelming support in Taiwan, to Japan, we have given it the unique brand name 'STUN-G' to convey the product's value most intuitively to Japanese users, and are currently applying for a trademark.

STUN: The 'stun effect' that instantly stops pests' movement with an electric shock, rather than physically crushing them.

G: The initial of 'Gokiburi' (a euphemism for unpleasant pests) or 'Gaichu' (pests), the biggest household concern in Japan.

Combining these, we have created a name that can be cherished as a 'close-combat charm' that is highly effective against tough targets.

Creating a Safe and Hygienic Space Without Relying on Chemicals

In conventional cockroach and pest control, many people have used 'strong insecticide sprays' or 'directly swatting with slippers or magazines'. However, these methods have serious issues in modern lifestyles.

Reducing Health and Environmental Risks from Chemicals

While highly effective, the chemical components in insecticide sprays are a major concern for pets (dogs, cats, insects, etc.), small children, and people with allergies.

'STUN-G' neutralizes targets with electric shock alone, achieving completely 'chemical-free' pest control.

Eliminating 'Hygiene Risks' in Restaurants and Dining Areas

Crushing pests scatters their bodily fluids, spreading germs, a serious hygiene problem. Also, using insecticide spray around food is difficult.

'STUN-G' is designed with a special soft net that 'does not crush the target', allowing safe and hygienic pest control without soiling the space, whether in home kitchens and dining rooms or restaurant seating and kitchens.

Through the spread of this product, our company aims to contribute to 'maintaining a safer and cleaner sanitary environment' in homes and the food service industry.

The Overwhelming 5 Product Features of 'STUN-G'

Appearance of STUN-G

(1) Hybrid of 'Fly Swatter' x 'Electric Racket'

By adopting new materials, we have fused products that previously only existed as either 'physically swatting' or 'applying an electric shock in mid-air'. It is reliably effective against small pests, including cockroaches.

The net is also soft because it is plastic.

(2) No Unpleasant Bodily Fluids! Soft Net

The net is designed to be soft, not hard like a metal heating wire, accurately delivering only the electric shock without physically crushing the pest. This dramatically reduces the unpleasantness of post-processing.

Showing the flexibility of STUN-G

(3) Ultra-Lightweight at only 100g & Slim Shape for Targeting Gaps

With a highly flexible body and an astonishingly light weight of 100g, even those without much strength can handle it nimbly with one hand. It can accurately approach narrow spaces where cockroaches tend to hide, such as behind refrigerators or in furniture gaps. There is no need to swing it; just placing it is enough.

Electrocuting a pest with STUN-G

(4) Optimized Voltage of 2500V

While possessing the power to take down pests in one hit, the voltage has been optimized to 2500V to minimize the risk of serious burns if a human hand accidentally touches the net while it is energized.

Washing STUN-G with water

(5) Washable! Rust-Proof Conductive Plastic

Instead of a metal net, it uses a special conductive plastic. There is no worry about rust, and if it gets dirty, it can be washed with water (excluding the main body's power section), keeping it clean at all times.

Ideal for These People and Situations

Scenes where STUN-G is recommended

People who are sensitive to the ingredients or smell of insecticide sprays

Households with pets (dogs, cats, small animals, insects, etc.) indoors

Around dining tables, or in restaurants and cafes

As a reliable 'charm for close-quarters cockroach combat' when needed
