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:  - didn't workI'm willing to admit that this may apply only to the one I received, but when the Flowtron arrived it was damaged (only one bulb lit up). Following the instructions in the box, I called the manufacturer, who was very helpful, called me back right away, and send out a replacement bulb for the one that was defective. Even after replacing the bulb, however, the unit didn't "zap"--suggesting that there was an additional problem with the transformer powering the electric coil. At this point I shipped ... Read More Rating:  - This thing is greatThe Flowtron arrived in good time and in good condition. I hooked it up and it started zapping bugs right away. (Of course my 16 year old son thinks this is great.) We live in the woods and the bugs we horrible this year, but after two weeks of use we have reclaimed our deck. This thing really works! It tends to get clogged up with bugs after about a week of use and then we just take an air compressor and blow out the dead bugs. (A shop vac reverse would do the same thing.) The only thing that stops ...

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 ...

Only 2 little screws to hold all the weight of this unit. The hanging ring is not solid, Had to weld the ring together so it won't let go in a strong wind.Could of use a On/Off switch on it too. Rating: - Flowtron BK-80D ROCKSThis product beats the crud out of the 3 Stinger products I purchased from the 'Depot. Those were absolute JUNK and they never worked. HOWEVER, the Flowtron is on-point keeping my yard clean with a steard stream of those wonderful "ZAP" sounds. I can now sit on my porch for hours with out fear of being eaten alive by the bugs. I have a creek in my back-yard so we have the WORST mosquitoes. Not anymore! Browse for similar items by category:
