An apparatus for attracting and killing insects, the appara- tus comprising: a fuel storage tank containing a fuel; a flame generating member in communication with the fuel; a first thermally conductive surface proximate to the flame generating member; a heat sink; at least one thermoelectric generator with a hot side thermally coupled to the first thermally conductive surface and a cool side thermally coupled to the heat sink, the thermoelectric generator producing a voltage and a current proportional to a temperature difference between the hot side and the cool side; an electronic circuit electrically coupled to the ther- moelectric generator, the electronic circuit configured to convert the voltage and the current into an increased voltage differential; and, a conductive grid electrically coupled to the electronic circuit, wherein the fuel is combusted on the flame generating member, thereby producing carbon dioxide, water vapor and heat, and the heat increases a tempera- ture of the first thermally conductive surface to create a temperature gradient between the hot side and the cool side of the thermoelectric generator, thereby producing the voltage and the current from the thermoelectric generator, and the electronic circuit provides the in- creased voltage differential to the conductive grid.
