How can you make a homemade electric/electronic bug-zapper?  Looking
for something fairly uncomplicated.  Can it be something as simple as sections 
of a grid each hooked to the 2 different plates of a sizeable electrolytic 
charged sufficiently so that when a bug bridges the grid it gets
zapped by the cap's discharge thru its body and then re-charges? 
Or is there more to it than that?
