Flowtron BK-80D 80-Watt, 1-1/2-Acre Electronic Insect Killer Reviews
That evening was such a difference. The true test came in the morning, when we are sure to have a couple buzzing around our ears.nothing. I bit the bullet and bought the unit and received the Flowtron on Saturday. I would spray the dark spots in the house where the critters hide before I left home in the morning in an attempt to have a peaceful evening. As soon as I turned it on, I heard the buzzs and zaps of all the curious insects and apart from one or two errant critters, the whole house was mosquito-free. I should have purchased this long ago. It turned out to be just a waste of bug-killer. We live in Barbados and during the last couple of months, we have had lots of rain.
And with rain comes plenty of mosquitos. This unit seems well built and is highly recommended. And we got the same results on Sunday and Monday. After adjusting the ring that it hangs from (it seemed that it pull through the hook that I was going to hang it from), I placed it under our back porch.
We discovered that if we turn it on about an hour before we go out side, it took care of the mosquito problem. They leave large angry bumps where they bite and you itch for at least two weeks after you're bit. The Flowtron insect killer really got rid of those pesky mosquitos. The only drawback is the bright light. It has made it possible for us to relax on our patio without being bothered by those pesky mosquitos. We needed something that would make it possible for us to sit and enjoy our beautiful backyard.
It also did a great job of scaring off the owls that were making our cats lives miserable. Overall, we are very pleased with the way it has substantially reduced the insect population in our backyard. This Flowtron really did the trick. The mosquitos in our backyard are particularly nasty. They were ruining our outside patio experience. Bugs seemed to be drawn to it like a magnet.
I understand there are units out there that are not as bright. We placed the insect killer in the middle of our 1/2 acre yard where you could hear it quietly zapping insect after insect.
Oh my doG, it kills "Japanese" (aka European) hornets. This unit is awesome. 'nuff said.
This is a good product for the money, although this was purchased as a replacement for the same exact model. Will use the new bulbs in this one to see if the problem was the bulbs burning out or some other part that stopped working in the last one before ordering new parts and paying for shipping. The last one we had lasted 1 1/2 seasons before it stopped working (running 10 hours/night for 4 months).
