    • This Product Is The Worst, please read for reasons why, thanks!
Pattern Name: Insect Killer
I am incredibly disappointed with the flowtron bug zapper. I bought it because of the product claim that the flowtron BK-40D would annihilate 99.9% of all mosquitoes (plus a ton of other bugs), living in/located within/or just having the unfortunate luck of being in the full acre surrounding the flowtron. We have two acres, so I thought this would be the perfect weapon to fight the hordes of mosquitoes that unfortunately infiltrate our property each year. I figured I’d get two and that would take care of our entire property. HOW EXCITING 🤗!!! However, I was at least smart enough to just try one flowtron to begin with until I got a real understanding of how the thing worked, and to obviously get some first-hand experience before completely falling for the hype. (I should also mention that this zapper also promised some other “to-good-to-be-true type things, but they mostly relied on purchasing some other accessories before they’d be proven to be true or (more likely) disappoint the masses.) However, I decided to just stick with the basic mosquito massacre model, so I went on Amazon and ordered the flowtron BK-40D. Based on everything I read about this machine, I truly believed I was in for nothing short of a miracle, but boy was I wrong!!!! Not only was it pretty much identical to every other mosquito zapping machine I’ve ever seen/owned, but the thing came with some pack of liquid or something to stick on the machine in order to attract a cult of kool-aid drinking bunnies or something like that...oh wait, now that I think about it, I think it was actually for getting giant jumping spiders to commit suicide, (not even joking about that one)! I mean not really , or at least not specifically for euthanizing Charlotte and her chubby family members, but I promise you, it did come with a packet meant to do some sort of major damage to some type of living creature. But, unfortunately, the instructions I received about attaching the packet, slash using the original product as intended were so incredibly hard to comprehend, I had to eventually give up. And there’s even more to this tragedy...PLOT TWIST!!! How exciting, right?!? Not right...the stupid thing broke within a couple of weeks. And on top of that (yes, there’s more!!!), I made sure to study the machine’s success each and every day. (To do this, one must look at the zapper with one’s own eyes and determine whether or not the zapper is actually zapping. (A pile of bugs underneath the machine and pieces of crusty wing stuck to the machine are exactly the kind of evidence you’d be needing as proof that the zapper is zapping.) So anyway, each morning I’d go out expecting to see evidence that the machine was working and doing the job it had been given. And each day, I’d pass by the zapper with a familiar pang of disappointment. No piles of dead mosquitoes...no collage of crusty wrinkled wings, ...just a flowtron BK-40D, hanging there and mocking the excitement I once had that we’d “finally get a handle on that annoying mosquito problem”. Just like our daughter’s pool, cowering in the background, green with algae, mocks the excitement our children once had to play in the 81,892 square feet of what was once our yard, but during spring and summer months, it is better known as the bordello of sucking blood and the house of encephalitis, malaria and ill repute. AKA the 81,892 square foot breeding ground for one of the most annoying and vile creatures God could have ever allowed on planet Earth. But I digress. As I was saying, the flowtron was not living up to the promises it made about killing all the mosquitoes within a one mile radius, let alone killing the ones hanging around our back porch. It was pathetic. I mean, I literally watched a mosquito fly around the flowtron, and then stop and land on it. And I swear, I saw that thing laughing hysterically and flipping me off, just taking a break on what was supposed to be the literal depiction of a mosquito killing machine...yet here it is, just hanging there, available to these freaking mosquitoes for their rest and relaxation whenever they just want to take a breather, ya know?!? I mean c’mon!!! At that point, I was just about at the last straw if you will...AND THEN IT HAPPENED... I wanna say this was maybe two and a half, maybe three weeks after I shelled out the what, maybe $50, $60 or something like that to buy what I thought was going to be our miracle solution, the flowtron BK-40D......AND THE DAMN THING BROKE! I kid you not. THAT’S RIGHT: $60, 3 WEEKS AFTER BUYING IT, IT FREAKING BROKE!!! SOMETHING ELECTRICAL THAT ONLY A SPECIALIST CAN FIX!!! This machine that was a, yes I know, “zapper“, was still supposed to be the top-of-the-line, best-in-its-class, can’t get any better, #1 Ever Made bug zapper, specializing in the supposedly humane method of exterminating mosquitoes. And it broke after three weeks! The light turned to a faint purple when it was plugged in and it was no longer able to injure, mame or kill any bug of any kind. I called the number on the website and no one was able to help me. I could try to have them replace it, but they wanted me to pay for the new one up front and then send them back the “old one” (though in my mind 3 weeks will never in any way be considered “old”.) If the problem with the “old one” isn’t covered under the very very extremely limited warranty, then I am stuck with having to pay $60 for each zapper, $120 total. But, if the problem is covered under the very very limited warranty, then I would get a refund of the $60 I just paid for the replacement zapper. After receiving this explanation as basically my only option (unless I wanted to go to a private electrician, mechanic or engineer to fix whatever the problem was with the original, and then pay them whatever their fee is to fix it...YEAH RIGHT!!!) So basically, I realized that this was just going to be a lose-lose-lose situation for me. I’d lose my money, I’d lose the zapper and I’d LOSE MY MIND!!! So I figured I’d just stick with the L/L/L plan, basically because It’s the cheapest option, and I didn’t feel like being ripped off by anyone else. So basically, the zapper (Flowtron BK-40D) SUCKS ASS! The company who makes/sells it and provides the customer service on the worst warranty in history SUCKS ASS! But, most of all, mosquitoes SUCK MAJOR ASS!!!! So, I 100% WOULD NOT RECOMMEND you buy the Flowtron BK-40D, unless you feel like getting ripped off or if you have some weird fetish for being ripped off and it’s cheaper to buy the flowtron than some weirdly specific prostitute, then I would say to go ahead and steer clear of buying this crappy machine now or in the future, unless they make a version in say 20 years that doesn’t SUCK ASS, but I think we all know that’s not very likely! So what I’m saying is, I bought this product, it SUCKS ASS, I 100% DO NOT RECOMMEND the Flowtron BK-40D, I am giving this product 1 star, oh yeah, and MOSQUITOES SUCK ASS TOO!!! Thanks for reading my review!!! Have a wonderful day!!! ... show more

This is a fabulous product! And it began working instantly! I love it! Probably the best $53 I have ever spent! For the first time ever, I can now go out in my yard during the summer without long sleeves, long pants or insect repellent! It gives me the ability to enjoy my yard 365 days of the year! The product instructions say to hang it 10 feet off the ground, but I have it about 7 feet high and that works fine. See the photo of it filled with dead mosquitoes! This is after the 4th week, so there are less on it now than initially. I do have a slow-running creek and gutters that are tiled wrong so they keep on breeding in the standing water, but I never get bit anymore bec this device gets them! To clean it, I take a little stick and poke it thru the bars and knock the dead mosquitoes off . They fall thru the bottom bars onto the ground, no problem. So easy to clean! You do not need a heavy gauge extension cord bec it draws very low voltage. The average outdoor extension cord will work fine. GREAT product!!! ... show more

    • Does it’s job!
Pattern Name: Insect Killer
This is probably my best purchase in along time. For the past 3 summers we have woke up every morning to the bugs that come by the 100s all over our garage doors, cars and front door. We live on the lake so I have the outside of my house sprayed 6 months out of the year. Nothing for 3 summers worked! Every morning I would go out to a can of spray and kill then and then use the blower to clean everything up. They are called midgets. They are like a mosquito but don’t bite. If you have ever had them you know they are just about impossible to get rid of. Well I bought this bug light in April and left it sitting in the garage and didn’t put it up till 3 days ago. That next morning my morning routine changed! Not a single bug! I just couldn’t believe it. This product is amazing and has made me be able to enjoy my front door area again, Instead of running in and shutting the door really quick. If you are having outdoor bug problems you need this light! ... show more

    • It zaps lots of bugs... placement and attractant are crucial
Pattern Name: Insect Killer
I have another Flowtron in my front and a cheaper model in my backyard that finally died. When shopping for a replacement I definitely went with another Flowtron. It definitely zaps anything that dare cross its path. Putting it in the right place, near where the bugs are, and having a suitable attractant for the types of mosquitos you're after (octenol works well with the ones in the Pacific northwest but if you're in other parts of the country or world, you may have tiger mosquitos that need a different attractant. My gripe with these are the ridiculously short power cord. I get that they just expect you to use an extension cord... okay. But make that stub more like 2-3 feet. As it is, the itty bitty length means that when you're using an appropriate waterproof extension cord cover, it's dangling right there near the top of this and can make it lean one way or the other... it's just silly how short it is. It makes me want to disassemble the thing and just wire in something longer but I tolerate it. It's just such a weird design choice... makes me wonder of the UL listing was involved somehow because it's so irrational. My other cheapo zapper was the same, so maybe... ... show more

I don’t think I’ve ever left a review before, but this zapper might be my best purchase in the last several years. I was having a gnat problem where they would coat my lawn and sliding doors, which then led to them sneaking in my house day in and day out. After buying this, they’ve completely ignored me and my house. I can’t emphasize enough how amazing this is… literally kills colonies of bugs i didn’t even know existed every single night. One recommendation - get a remote to turn on/off from inside. Then simply switch on a few minutes before you want to enjoy time outside and boom bug free!! ... show more
