I got more maintenance tips from this program in three minutes than I did from the company when I owned it. I returned two machines and never looked back.

It's true. I've used mine for 2 seasons and this is the first time I figured out how to maintain it

Hank Hill gives his approval. Nothing like clean burning propane!

These maintenance tips are probably the source of most people's issues with the units.

Would have loved to see it at work.

You can also leave out buckets of stagnant water for them to lay their eggs and pour the water through a strainer once a week to catch the larvae.

Looks like quite a rig. I'd love to have one.

I wanted to see that in use.

What model/brand is featured in the video?

Is the somewhere I can order the resetting tool from?

Any follow up videos on mosquitoes caught?

How to do dacing

Yard lawns are best kept weed free by keeping grass 3" to 4" high. Unfortunately, in my lawn, this seems to attract Mosquitos and other bugs. Is there any way to eliminate them and still keep the nice lawn?

Hi there! Here are some mosquito zapper alternatives: www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/photos/0,,20217976,00.html You may also find our guide on how to deal with stinging insects helpful: www.thisoldhouse.com/toh/photos/0,,20612570,00.html

Why is the power supply not mentioned?

What runs the fan, does it have batteries ????

I also had one of those machines that didn't work.

Seems like a PITA. I wish they made a natural gas version.

Put it near stagnant water? How about get rid of the stagnant water and cure a lot of your problems...

Easy to say until you use your brain and realise some people live near large bodies of water like lakes. Some people have neighbors who install ponds into their yard and dont maintain them. Some areas are in floodplains and will have flooding that is impossible to stop.

Can someone call Captain Obvious and get him on the production team for this video? Leave a link where you can shop for one. Show it working and results. "Captain, we need you!"

Get a dyna trap there’s really no maintenance other than replacing two light bulbs

Octenol shop Mosquito attractant for the best price

Does this kill the mosquitoes? I'm looking for ways to calculate the population density of mosquitoes in an area and I came across this. I just want to know if it will be suitable for catch and release methods.

I'd google a university that studies mosquitos (or any insects for that matter), contact them, and find out how they do those types of surveys.

Seriously, the mosquito is one of, if not the only, living creature that serves NO purpose other than spreading malaria and other fun viruses....We're not talking honey bees here, KILL them!

Is the propane harmful to pets or people?

It's completely safe. Impossible for anything to go wrong with propane.

Plenty of bad products out there, but this one is special… “If” you can get it started, and this is very very difficult, it “does” work, but most of the time any normal person will give up… Run from this product!!!

Never seen something that requires so much h work for something so trivial as a mosquito bite.

Trivial? Mosquitoes carry disease, like West Nile virus and malaria. And a summer evening out on the deck or patio is impossible in mosquito country. You must live in an Manhattan apartment.

MRJOHNDEERE3720 This will kill them, I've found that this plus a fogger is the perfect combo

Feels overengineered

And for 800$ plus money on gas every 3 weeks lol
