Best product for getting rid of sugar ants
This is by far the best bait trap I've tried for getting rid of sugar or sweet ants. I've used them at my home and office and the ants are immediately attracted to it. Just place one along the trail. After two days, they were gone. This product was recommended to me by an ant exterminator after I had unsuccessfully tried other bait traps sold by the local hardware stores.
Word of caution--do not use in areas where pets might get to it. The exterminator told me his mother-in-law's dog ate two of the traps and died.
It is also fascinating to watch the ants crawl in, eat, leave and communicate with the other ants along the trail, as bizarre as it may sound. ... Read more

Product Description

Rats and mice pose serious health risks, but traps and poisons come with a heavy price. Poisons can endanger children and pets while inhumane traps require the handling of potentially disease-bearing rodents. Neither poisons nor traps provide long-term protection since more rodents will likely replace the ones you've killed. It can be an unending cycle. The PestChaser Electronic Rodent Repeller puts the emphasis on non-toxic prevention, instead of after-the-fact toxic intervention. The PestChaser emits high frequency ultrasound waves between 32 and 62 kHz to create an acoustically hostile environment that repels rodents from sound-protected areas, over the long term. It's kinder than traps, safer than poisons, and inaudible to people and non-rodent pets. The extremely high output of the Commercial PestChaser provides extra sound power muscle for particularly stubborn rodent infestations in warehouses, hotels, restaurants, schools, hospitals, office buildings - virtually all commercial facilities. The direct plug-in design comes equipped with one-way security screws to reduce theft when installed in public places. ... Read more

• Twice as Powerful As Conventional PestChasers
• Non-Toxic, Kinder than Traps, Safe for Humans and Non Rodent Pets
• Complex Swept Frequency So Rodents Cannot Adapt
• High Output For Food Processing, Food Service, Restaurants, Hotels & Industrial

Amazon.com Review

Flying, crawling, darting, and conniving pests will be shaking in their boots when you arm your household with the PestContro Deluxe. This nifty device plugs into a standard electrical wall outlet; is silent as, well, a mouse; looks like an air freshener; and really works. Varmints of all sorts--from rats to squirrels to fleas--head for the hills when the PestContro is activated. How does it work? PestContro Deluxe has a unique system that combines electromagnetic and ultrasonic technology. In layman's terms, it transmits a harsh, high-pitched sound through the air into the coverage area, including walls, ceilings, and floors. The sound is inaudible to humans, but if you want to hear what your cockroach hears, just press the test button on top of the device. Basically, the noise drives pests nuts and they skedaddle. The handy instruction booklet gives you lots of tips on setting the right frequency to snag the right pest. The best thing about this device is that it uses no chemicals, so it's safe around children and pets. --C. Whitney-Ward ... Read more

• Safe around children and pets
• State-of-the-art pest control/repeller system
• Advanced electro-magnetic and ultra-sonic technology

It makes a noise humans can hear
Despite the manufactures claims this unit makes noise. It has two frequency levels, super high for flying insects and lower for mice. I had it running for a few days in my kitchen on the lower setting. My house is having foundation repair right now so is somewhat open to the elements around the basement. I wanted to keep mice setting up home this fall.

One day I had a friend over for diner. Within a few hours of being over, she came down with a headache. Just a mild one, but enough to make her comment about it. Later as she came into the kitchen to see what I was doing, she asked me what that high pitched sound was. I figured she had seen the box for the PestContro machine and was pulling my leg - but she hadn't. I went over to the box and set it to its highest frequency and she could no longer hear it, but whenever I put it into the lower setting, she would wince with pain. I noticed that I could hear a faint static noise coming from the machine when it was set to the lower frequency too, but nothing like what my friend could hear. I unplugged the device. Within an hour her headache had gone away. I'm returning my PestContro machine.

Lentek PestContro Deluxe
Have bought 6 of them for rodent control in 5 locations. In one house, noise from rats or squirrels had kept both adults awake the night before - they have not heard a sound since. I have two PestContros in my house where we have rats and many squirrels. We have not heard any since PestContros installed and don't remember even seeing squirrels on the roof outside or in their favorite little tree by the house. Our total evaluation time since the first PestContro is just over a month and the last three have not arrived yet so the above comments are early and only represent two houses. However, we expect good rodent results in the other three where rats and squirrels are known to be living. We like the night light feature too. Had to return one PestContro when it developed a 60HZ hum but got a quick replacement. Can't comment on bug control fairly - we have not seen any but we have a bug contract and usually don't see many.

Great buy!
Since I have installed, I've never seen any kind of pest in my house (except me). It worked since the first minute. I'm very happy, my family also.

It works for me.
I am living in a fairly small apartment (less than a thousand square feet) and the device works nicely. I set it at high frequency in the first place. But I could still see a few roaches crawling around after one week. Then I tried the low frequency setting, and then in a few days the number of roaches was greatly reduced. In around two-week time all the roaches vanished. Now my place is free of the annoying roaches. I am very pleased.

Attracts more roaches!!!!!
We [bought] this product...It didn't repel any insects at all. Instead, we were constantly seeing roaches and roach droppings *around* the unit. It actually attracted them instead of repelling them!!! DO NOT BUY!!! ... Read more

After a few days Green Lacewing Eggs hatch and tiny larvae emerge which are also known as aphid lions because of their voracious appetites. There is no better beneficial insect known to consume vast quantities of eggs and the soft bodies of aphids, mealybugs, spider mites, leafhopper nymphs, caterpillar eggs, scales, thrips and whiteflies. The lacewing larvae attack the eggs of most pests and if the bodies are not to hard and fast moving, they will attack the adult pest stage as well. ... Read more

Product Description

The Rat PackThe Rat Pack is an add-on battery pack for the Rat Zapper 2000. It allows any Rat Zapper 2000 ever built to use D-cell batteries instead of AA batteries. This will give you up to 6 times the battery life that you get from 4 AA batteries. This translates into 60 kills or 6 months time (as opposed to 10 kills or 30 days time with AA's). It's great for rural homeowners, ranches, commercial facilities and Pest Control Operators. The 4 D-cell batteries provide plenty of power for zapping large rats and ground squirrels (as well as mice and voles). Also, the extra weight of the D-cell batteries helps to keep the Rat Zapper firmly planted and prevents larger rodents from tipping the Rat Zapper. Note: Batteries are not included with the Rat Pack and we strongly recommend the use of alkaline batteries. ... Read more

Nice piece of garden art...failed in the first month
This is a great concept to battle the mosquitos. Unfortunately, it is not reliable enough to do the job. My MM ran successfully for the first tank of propane. Then, I replaced the tank, used the CO2 quick-clear cartridge according to the instructions, and restarted the unit. After the 10-minute warm-up period, the MM shut off and indicated a start-up error. I tried again. And again. And, yes, again. I used 3 more C02 cartridges (there went $15 in a puff...well, 3 puffs) and bought a brand new propane tank (another $50). Still no luck. I checked the MM tech support and learned that the mfr recommends against propane 'swap' tanks (Blue Rhino, PPX, etc.). Well, that wasn't in the instructions anywhere, so now I'm out 2 new swap tanks at $50 each. I refilled a standard tank...still no luck. I called Amer. Biophys. and got a 'super secret' restart procedure to reset the internal computer. Still no luck. I have now shipped the unit back to AB and they are sending me a replacement, which I have no doubt is a refurbished unit someone else returned. So, after spending several hundred dollars, I am getting a used unit which, if experience is any indicator, will not last much beyond the warranty period, if that. WORST OF ALL, I have spent the mosquito-ridden summer fiddling with this contraption and GETTING BIT. If you want a piece of crappy plastic garden art, the Mosquito Magnet is perfect. If you want to avoid mosquitos, $400 will buy you a lot of Deep Woods Off!

A defective product
Yes, this product is GREAT when it works. We used it successfully for two years, here in mosquito-plagued Vermont. But like some of the other reviewers, our fan did not work this year, and we have received no help from American Biophysics, except that we could spend $600 for a newer version of this product ...!

With many competitive products out there, at less than half that price, there is no way we will buy from American Biophysics again. (Any we also have tried to be in touch with the people who run this company, through personal contacts. Well, they didn't even acknowledge our emails and letters)

Great, when it works...
Purchased a MM Pro in the summer of 2000. Worked great for two years, then in July of 2002, it wouldn`t stay on. Called customer service a few times, did everything they tole me to, but eventually they sent me a new power unit under warantee. That lasted a little more than one year; in 2003, we started having problems with it again. Called customer service today (July 5, 2004 -- no wait for service rep). Did what they asked. Appears that the muffin fan is dead. Asked about replacing it -- they don`t have any parts information. Not under warantee, must replace head for $350 or "upgrade" to Pro 2004 for $600. I asked them about reliability -- they said the new Pro is more reliable; don`t know if I want to spend $600 to find out.

I also bought a Defender last year from Home Depot. Still working this year. I use a bicycle pump instead of a CO2 cartridge on the quick-clear valve. Works every time.

Overall I give the concept 5 stars -- when they're running, these guys suck up lots of mosquitos. But I give the implementation one star -- when they go on the fritz, which at least the Pro units seem to do in one or two years, they're an expensive lawn ornament.

ELIMINATES mosquitos when it actually works
5 stars - it really does catch 'em
1 star - didn't last more than one summer...read on...

This is a review of the older version PRO model (1 acre coverage) which I purchased back in '02 while living in MA. I give it 5 stars b/c back then during the summer when west nile was rampant, it really did catch every single mosquito in the neighborhood!

My friends like to take my wife and myself along on camping trips b/c we are their mosquito repellent - bugs just love us for some reason. I've been on week long fly fishing trips where I've sustained 100's (YES, I've counted) of bites on my arms and neck and my buddies had NONE! Even walking the dogs in the evenings, out in the yard would leave me ridden with bites.

After purchasing (reluctantly, given the (...)) the unit, life changed that summer as we didn't get one single bite. Life was good and our neighbors even thanked us b/c they too noticed a difference.

BUT, since that summer, the unit has had difficulty starting and for the past year and a half, has been inoperable here in VT. Visiting the American Biophysics website tech support area for information and examining their new models which incorporate a quick-clear cleanout feature has made me realize that these 'orifice obstructions' were so prevalent, a design change was warranted. Unfortunately, my 'older' model did not have this feature and since it was not under warranty, I would have to pay about $400 to get a refurbished unit!

Now, after having paid $1200 for a bug catcher, this infuriated me. To make matters worse, my wife has just received her first set of bites and has threatened to dismember my extremities if our newborn baby gets bit!

So, while I await a response from the president of the company, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I just spent 5 hours taking the 'power pack' apart, cleaning every orifice and conduit and after much swearing and bruised knuckles, managed to get the darn unit operating again! I just spend 10 minutes outside (got about 15 more bites) to make sure the 'suction' was working. I will know tomorrow if it actually was fixed.

So, my summary:

The science behind the product is sound - it really does catch every biting pest out there. I've saved the season's catch in a large glass jar and just about disgusted every person I showed it to.

Given the tiny orifice (I mean smaller than a needle point) used in the combustion chamber and the 'dirty' nature of propane fuel, there is a tendency to have claudications that may compromise function.

Out of warranty repairs are costly - the options given by customer service appear to favor upgrading to a new machine - makes you feel terrible that all your hard earned money has gone to waste.

Taking the power pack apart is quite difficult (I do not recommend this unless you are adept and comfortable with tools) especially when the fasteners are of odd sizes, likely to thwart tampering by persons like me.

The newer models that incorporate the quick-clear feature may perform better but uncertain of product support if a failure was to occur. Most of the newer models also incorporate a better ignition system - the older one required holding down a button for about 5 minutes before the machine was operational - any accidental release (say, if your thumb went numb) would usually require starting the procedure over again.

Despite the limitations, I hope to purchase another unit - just too many mosquitos in VT!

Cheers!

Dave. ... Read more

Product Description

Place a little food in the base of the trap and set the trap near porches, pools and patios when wasps and yellow jackets become a nuisance. Quickly attracted by the lure, they fly into the entry tunnels, from which they cannot escape, and they drown in the liquid. When the bait is used up, empty and refill. Made of high density plastic, the trap can be reused for years. Because yellow jackets and wasps are beneficial insects for the gardener, we recommend putting the trap out only late in the summer when their activity is most aggressive. Use in backyards, around pools, decks and outdoor eating facilities. (Bait recipe included). ... Read more

Everyone should have one of these....
I use this all the time (I'm not sure this is the exact same model I have, but it's the closest I can find).It is an easy way to get insects evicted from indoors to out, and it is humane because it doesn't kill the insect.You just suck it up with the vacuum and toss it outdoors.I would give it 4-and-a-half instead of 5 stars because sometimes the suction isn't strong enough for larger fiestier insects, such as camel crickets.Maybe they should invent one that has 2 levels of suction strength!This works fine for most spiders, beetles, etc.Not only are you being kind to the insect, you are saving your walls & floors from being smushed on and saving yourself from having poison sprayed around your house.I'm buying another one for a gift. ...
