Not too useful on Long Island:
I left this thing on for 3 weeks straight. I think I caught 4 mosquitos in that time period plus some lady bugs. I'm not sure if it's a LONG ISLAND MOSQUITO that doesn't care for the blue light but they just don't seem to be attracted to it. I was still getting bitten every time I went out (when I stood still) and I did not see a decrease in mosquito activity.
Doesn't work - period.:
I'd echo the majority of the other reviews...this thing is noisy and makes no measurable difference in the mosquito population in my yard. I also suspect it contributed to my increased electric bill, to boot. Keep looking - there are other more effective solutions out there.
Don't waste your money...:
Worthless. Provides no benefit. I bought this early in the summer because we were having the worst mosquito season I can remember. Having used it for several months, I don't believe it made any difference at all. Sure, there were bug pieces in the tray; but my backyard wasn't ANY more liveable. I personally have more success with citronella torches. I wish I had kept my money. Maybe I'll have to fork over for a misting system...
Awful:
The product is a total waste. I thought that other bad reviews had other, more expensive catchers in conjuction with this making it not work. But really it just doesn't work. It's been plugged in for a week and it has caught 3 mosquitos, while 8 feet away there are literally hundreds of mosquitos at my barbeque patio. It is a total waste. Get something else.
