Summary: Great Product
Comment: I live on a farm so we have lots of bugs. I mounted the unit app 100' away from my house. The unit works as advertised. I can now walk into my front door without being attacked. As others have mentioned, it does need larger access for the larger bugs. I will eventually modify it to accommodate. I am very pleased with this product.

Summary: Attracts and kills a lot of suckers
Comment: This product does what it says. It attracts and kills the bugs. And it never stops. It just keeps doing so.
So why did I rate it just one star?
Because the basic function of flowtron makes it oxymoronic for my use.
It attracts all the bugs from all over the neighborhood to my backyard making my backyard full of alive and dead bugs.
My backyard is about 2500 sq.ft and this product may be more effective for people have larger yards ... perhaps over 5000 sq.ft.
I would rather use a combination of citronella candles/torches, bug fogger and other sprays.

Summary: This Mosquito Death Machine is Awesome!
Comment: We live next to a marsh in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago. There is a real fear here of West Nile virus and the mosquitos are so thick in our yard we stopped letting our 3 young children play outside past dusk. I bought a Mosquito Magnet 3 years ago never really worked and died after 18 months - probably cost $2 per mosquito killed.
I got the 1 1/2 acre Flowtron BK 80D 2 days ago and have been in awe of this machine since plugging it in. At dusk a CLOUD of mosquitos appears around the zapper and then it is pure entertainment watching this thing going postal on all my bugs. There was a 1/4 inch thick ring of dead mosquitos in a 2 foot circle on the deck below the zapper after 2 days. It must be killing > 750 a night. What everyone says about the grids clogging up with bugs is true - I don't think its a design flaw, I just thinks it works that well! I recommend this to everyone.

Summary: Flowtron BK-80D 80-Watt, 1-1/2-Acre Electronic Insect Killer
Comment: The unit arrived quickly and in good shape. Amazon always impresses me with their delivery and service. That's why I keep coming back. As for this product...it kills lots of flying bugs including mosquitos, moths, and anything else that flies into it. I have to use my leaf blower at least once each week to blow dead bugs off the electric grid wires. My expecations may not be as great as some buyers, but if it kills any mosquitos at all..it's better than none. The flying bug population appears to have decreased around my back door; I located the unit about 50 feet away from the door. The unit is well built. I am very satisfied with the unit.
