Flowtron Model BK-40D Electronic Insect Killer (One Acre Coverage)

We have not been able to find this type of bug zapper anywhere in our area. We use it to attrack insects to the area where we fish off our dock. It zaps the bugs which bring in the bait fish which then in course brings in the large fish. It also helps keep insects in that area and away from our house or front porch. We are so glad we could find this particular type, its the only kind that works.

I live in a wooded area and this light does the job. Itkills so many bugs that it has to be cleaned with an air blower about 2 times a week, which only takes a few minutes.

The product is the enemy of bugs. It is the most efficient that I have ever used. This is my third brand to try. The first unit that I recieved was damaged, but it was easy to return and Amazon refunded the shipping expenses. It was worth the wait. I have had the unit for a few weeks and I hope that it stands the test of time better than other brands. The capacitors seem to go out and they became bug attractors with no zapping ability. I hope this one will last.

This is my second one. The first one suffered an electrical part failure thankfully within the warranty period. They diagnosed the problem over the phone and sent the part. About a year later, it failed again. Within this 2 year period, I replaced the bulb twice. I bought another one specifically because of its ease of cleaning out the grids, no more and no less. I also bought the second unit instead of paying to fix the old unit because of the cost. I figured it was cheaper to buy a new one rather than fix the other one. Sad, because we have become a throw away society, but the manufacturers have been the ones that have forced us into this predicament.
I am giving them another shot, but this will be the last as if this one doesn't last any longer than the other one, I will just buy the cheaper product. No sense paying a premium price for the unit and its special bulbs if I can't get premium service out of the unit.
My location is Louisiana and hence bug zappers get a terrific workout around my property.

I was happy with the size of this zapper - didn't want a monstrosity in our yard. I have it set on a timer and it appears to be doing a good job. I know the birds sure love the crispy treats they find in the morning!
