Amazon.com Review: Are you troubled by more insects than you can swat? Sick of citronella? Driven mad by mosquitoes? The Flowtron 80-watt electronic insect killer is just what you need to remove pesky insects from the guest list at your next picnic or outdoor get-together. This ecologically friendly device uses no fogs, sprays, or poisons and comes completely assembled and ready for use. The unit plugs into a standard electrical socket and operates for only pennies a day. It utilizes a high-intensity black light bulb to lure and eliminate light-sensitive flying insects and is designed to protect an area of up to 1-1/2 acres. An exclusive mosquito-attractant cartridge, activated when the unit is turned on, is also included. The unit's high-efficiency vertical grid eliminates clogging that can cause short-circuits or flare-up of insect remains, and a protective outer enclosure prevents injury to children, pets, birds, and wildlife. The durable casing is rainproof and rustproof for years of trouble-free operation. A two-year limited manufacturer's warranty is included. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Works as promisedThis product works very well. After reading reviews, I decided on the 80 watt vs a smaller model, because our yard sits in the middle of 60 acres of pastureland. Grasshoppers have a hard time getting into the middle,although very attracted to it. But if they make their way in, they do fry! Has really reduced the insect population in the evenings. Rating: - Very well worth the price; works like a charmThis zapper is incredible. I had some trepidation because I read zappers aren't very effective with regard to mosquitos but this one certainly is. It kills hundreds of bugs each night and they drop effortlessly through the bottom. A well-made, well-designed product that gets results. Rating:  - Flowtron and Stinger electronic Insect KillersI live on an island in a Louisiana Lake. From sundown to about 10:30 PM, the mosquitoes are "horrendous". I usually have 4 "bug lights" going at once. They are all Flowtrons, due to the better grid system. I have tried Stingers, but the grids "stop up" due to the bugs not falling free from the grid. Over the past 20 years, I have bought about 15 "bug lights". Sears( probably made by Flowtron), Stinger, and Flowtron. The Sears and Flowtron are the best, due to the grid system. I have ...

When the bulb burned out after at least five years of use, I had difficulty finding replacement bulbs and could not find a way to even get the bulbs out I think it was an older model that needed to be taken apart. So I unfortunately bought the stingers because they were at the local hardware store at the end of last year. I stored them in the garage through the winter. When I put new bulbs in this spring neither worked. I needed these!!! and bought two more this ... Read More Rating: - I'm impressedI did my homework before I purchased the Flowtron, looking into devices that used propane which is thought to generate the "ultimate lure". While these expensive units seem like the ideal solution reading reviews on these killing machines changed my mind. First off, while they are very effective when new,they don't stay that way and don't seem to hold up, and for $500 a pop they should have a long life. But that is only the beginning, with the high cost of propane today combined with an intensive ... Read More |
