Embossed KIL-LOL Electric Bug Killer by Omnia Chemical Co., New York, USA.

 

Electric Bug Kill Bottle Find.

This one is embossed, "KIL-LOL / ELECTRIC BUG KILLER / OMNIA CHEMICAL CO. NEW YORK U.S.A. ". There is an upside-down bug, embossed in a triangle under "KIL-LOL."

I saw an example of this type of bottle that sold for $75 in 2015.  It was said to be rare.

The Omnia Chemical Company obtained patents for liquid pesticides in 1905.  

Some bubbles and seam half way up the neck.  No makers mark on the bottom.
