Product Description

Flowtron's lantern-style insect killer uses nontoxic ultraviolet light to eliminate mosquitoes,

biting flies, and other insects over a 1/2-acre area. The insect killer is cleaner and safer than

its chemical counterparts, and its patented nonclogging killing grid eliminates the grid

clogging that can short-circuit the unit or cause flare-ups of insect remains. The insect killer

features high-impact construction and a protective outer enclosure to prevent children, pets,

birds, or wildlife from contacting the charged grid.

There are several different versions of this product, each one for increasingly large areas. This one- - the smallest- - is good for up to half an acre of protection. the perfect size for a large patio or deck and a modest lawn. Some may not like the zapping sound interrupting their most environmentally- sensitive way to rid your lawn and patio of bugs. The 15 watts of power needed to run this machine also make it one of the cheapest eliminators.

One of the great things about this model is unheralded in the list of features Amazon gives. With the addition of an positively lethal against mosquitos. We've found it to be much more effective than citronella torches.

About the only thing that mars this otherwise excellent device is the need to place it in front of the area you mean to protect. away from a house, not next to it... Read more

T his re vie w is f rom: Flowt ron BK- 80D 80- Wat t Ele ct ronic Inse ct Kille r, 1- 1/2 Acre Cove rage (Lawn & Pat io)

Stinger:Pros- With mosquito lure, killed lotsa bad 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 ofdays- HASSLE!

Flowtron BK-80D (took the wimpy 40w back!)-UPDATE-NOTE!- Spray electrical grid bars with PAM when new for easier cleaning later, but be SURE & remove bulbs FIRST or they will crack.- I tried Carefully spraying Just the bars with water, and ruined the unit (saved the old bulbs)!

Pros- Killed lots more bugs, because it NEVER clogs up! The electric rods are straight up/down, so no cross wires to catch falling insects & clog. Dead insectsfall out the bottom- Blow clean once a month.Update!-Forget the pricy attractant! My Flowtron 80w kills mosquitos!- Hundreds of dead ones underneath! My Flowtron 15w didn't do much, but 40w was pretty good(much cheaper... Read more

Background you can skipNormally I stay away from writing reviews for items that have already been throughly reviewed and compared as I can be of more help writing about the stuff noone else has tried yet. In this case, since it became such a huge unsolvable problem for us, I felt compelled to write about going 'low tech' for a change.Here's the scoop: we moved to a new home in late 06: 4 acres, large 12,000 gallon pond, about 1 acre grass, the rest trees/wooded.Little did we know that the previous owners had put that pond in because of the excess water in the area. The trees were virtually always, except during summer,in puddles or swamp waters. With the recent turn- to-wet climate this problem got exacerbated. Net result: swarms and swarms of mosquitoes taking over our lot.Even the UPS guy and our postie complained when they had to deliver. We had the city come out but other than once a season spraying there was no solace.So we looked online and finally... Read more
