Stinger UV40 40 Watt 1-Acre Advanced Bug Zapper Review

Stinger UV40 40 Watt 1-Acre Advanced Bug Zapper
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I changed my Stinger rating from a 5, to a 1 (there was no O!)

Stinger:
Pros- With mosquito lure, killed lotsa bad insects (at first, then wouldn't zap small insects!?)- BUT!
Cons- Their electric wire grid uses square wires that QUICKLY clog up. Pretty soon it was packed solid & killing nothing!
I had to keep blowing it out ( air compressor) every couple of
days- HASSLE!

Flowtron "80!" (took puny 40 back!)-
Pros- Killed lots more bugs, because it NEVER clogs up (zaps small insects too!)!
The electric rods are straight up/down, so no cross wires to catch falling insects & clog.
Dead insects fall out the bottom- Blow clean once a month...
I used the Stinger mosquito lure, purchased at Wally World...

Cons- The only con is that the outer protective plastic cage HAD bars only about 1/2" apart (same with Stinger)- This kept larger moths... from being able to easily get in to the electric grid.
I used a large wire cutter & cut out every 3d bar- on top 2/3ds of cage- Alternating..., so cut bar was in the middle of two solid bars on adajacent side- Still rigid!

I put it on an outside timer (for when evenings cool down- Not much insect activity below 55 degrees...). Adjust accordingly.

Never hang it near a door, as their is always a 10'+ swarm of insects around it.

Try to hang it over head high, in a DRY (electric) area.

Flowtron MT-125 Mosquito PowerTrap Review

Flowtron MT-125 Mosquito PowerTrap
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I took a leap of faith and bought one of these units a while back through Costco. Man I want to like this unit, but it is impossible.As expected, the fan went out in about a year.This is pretty consistent, and I figured, well, I'll see if I like it, and if I do, I'll just replace the fan when it fails.Not entirely a bad deal, since the fan is $44.95 or so, and this is one of the few Mosquito traps that combine LPG, octenol, and some electronic sounds/lights.

But the company can't get out of its own way.They're a bit hard to reach to begin with, but the only way to get a replacement fan for this unit is to mail them a check!The single customer service representative who seems to reply to email and answer the phone (Shelly), isn't setup for any type of payment, even though they run an online store for accessories.And on the accessories website, they don't sell parts, just accessories.With every single review containing stories of fans failing after a year, how much trouble would it be to carry the fan in the online store?And keep in mind this is YEARS after reviewers started reporting fan failures.What an idiotic company.

I really wanted to keep this sucker, but alas, back to Costco it goes.Costco's stopped carrying these, so no wonder why.For folks who haven't bought from Costco, Flowtron surely must have extracted a lot of money and grief with this stuff.Here's hoping justice is served by their departure from the marketplace.

Seeing another review in this thread, I guess I'll try a liberty next.

Flowtron MT-350 Mosquito Power Trap Plus, 1 1/2 Acre Mosquito Trap Review

Flowtron MT-350 Mosquito Power Trap Plus, 1 1/2 Acre Mosquito Trap
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Although I didn't buy this unit from Amazon, I thought I should let folks know about the troubles I have had with the MT-350.

It worked for a couple months during the summer and seemed to catch mosquitoes, however it quit just before the end of the season.Since then I haven't been able to get past the 3 blinking lights (no propane).Tried everything to fix the problem.Called Flowtron customer support several times with little satisfaction...they kept saying try something else to troubleshoot the problem.

The latest call resulted in them telling me the unit is now beyond warranty even though the unit failed before the warranty period expired.And they had the gall to tell me I could send them $175 for an "upgraded" head unit.It appears they have fixed some old problems.This is not what I call customer service especially after spending $400 to purchase the unit in the first place.

Bottom line...unit doesn't work and customer service doesn't either!I would say avoid the Flowtron PowerTrap MT-350!

Flowtron PR-2 Magnetic Bugfighter Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I hate to admit, but we have roaches! Actually, we HAD roaches until last week when I purchased this product. I had tried everything: sprays, bombs, traps, etc... But nothing worked. The first day I plugged this little device in, there was such a great increase in bug activity that my kids wouldn't go into the kitchen. By day 3, the roaches were GONE! I don't know where they went, and I don't care. This device saved my sanity.

Portable Fly & Insect Control Review

Portable Fly & Insect Control
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Probably it's best good point of the Flowtron FC4900 unit is that it uses UV lamps and a pheromone lure to attract insects to a black sticky pad within the unit. The health department loves this model since it does not zap the insect; preventing insect parts from exiting the unit when captured. The worst thing about the unit is that it does not capture as many of the insects as the traditional zapper units and requires the pheromone lure and sticky pad to be replaced at least twice a year. Replacement sticky pads are harder to come by as many of the vendors selling the unit do not sell the refills needed later. I recommend the unit, however improvements could be made to make these type of units more available and work better.

Flowtron BK-40D Electronic Insect Killer, 1-Acre Coverage Review

Flowtron BK-40D Electronic Insect Killer, 1-Acre Coverage
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
There are two ways to measure the quality of an insect zapper. First, how powerful is it light? That will determine from how far away insects will be attracted. Second, how powerful are its "shocks"? That will, of course, determine what happens to the hapless critters. The Flowtron BK-40D performs both of these admirably.

This should be set up AWAY from your seating area - at least 10 yards. It will attract and kill so many insects that if it is near you, you will get covered. Also, the zapping noises it makes as it kills can be intimidating to young kids.

The plug comes off a short (6 inches or so) wire from the top as it hangs down from your pole. Make sure whatever extension cord you use is rated for outdoor use.

There is a compartment just below this model, which will fit a sticky mosquito attractant - one comes free with this package. You can get refills easily at Target or WalMart. Cost about $4. You probably will not need them, however, because the UV light does a good job of attracting insects.

I recommend it fully.
