amazing
After ordering the 3 egg cases of praying mantids, I was able to remove all traces of carbon monoxide buildup in my house!! I can now fry eggs without the oven hood. These little bugs crawling around have saved me so much time, however, my relationship with the hospital staff has soured of late due to the recent drop off in business!!! I will find some keyboards for these things to drink in the meantime.

Not really praying
When I received my praying mantis, he worked quite well at keeping bugs away, but to my shagrin, he wasn't really praying at all.

I was later informed that my praying mantis is agnostic and has no firm belief in a god. To me, this made him seem like a poser, but he was able to get his job done without thinking about his 'victims'. All in all, a good product.

Best mantids anywhere!
These have got to be the best Mantids anywhere, easily the best on Amazon. I have a cat named Eeek who's amazed by them. ... Read more

The P3 International P7900 Sonic Molechaser makes moles scram byemitting a penetrating sound that sets the rodents' sensitive hearing on edge.Operating in a circular pattern of 120 feet, the Molechaser also chases offground squirrels, shrews, voles, pocket mice, and gophers. It won't harm therodents or your earthworms or your pets; it won't even harm your lawnmower,because you can bury it flush with the ground.

TheMolechaser gives off 300 Hz of sound at 15-second intervals and works best inunobstructed, moist clay soil. If soil is dry, sandy, or peat soil, you may needa couple of Molechasers to get rid of moles for good. --Emily Bedard ... Read more

Moles were gone in my yard.
I have many moles'hills in my front yard. I had tried many things, but did not work. I purchased two of 7900 Molechaser last month. I placed them in the front yard about 1 week. I can not see any signs of mole hill since then. I have noticed my neighboor yard having a mole hill now. What am I supposed to tell them?

Moles/Voles... little rodents!
I own and operate a professional lawn care and landscaping company. There is nothing more I hate than a mole/vole. I have tried mechanical traps, piercing tools, flooding, and tried killing the grubs/earthworms. In fact, the thought of using explosives like Bill Murray in Caddyshack has crossed my mind (on SEVERAL occasions). Since it is very hard to convince my customers in installing a pet fencing system, getting a cat, and training the 'mouser' cat to catch moles...these things suffice. I install mine using a bulb auger, check their operation quarterly, and they seem to work well (in hard, compacted clay)...If you have a lawn care/landscaping business, these are wonderful devices to sell your customers on (although they do make a funky vibe noise)...

Uncle Greg Loved it!
My Uncle Greg and Aunt Linda had more moles than you could shake a stick at. After I purchased them two molechasers, the moles all but vanished. They had tried everything. Aunt Linda was going crazy sprinkling hot sauce on the lawn and driving my uncle insane. Now they are both relaxing in there mole free lawn!! Thank you so much for a wonderful product!

Maintaining a mole free lawn - but I may be going overboard
The only reason I didn't give the Molechaser a 5 was the questionable range guidelines. It may be that it's hard to determine the range in my soil conditions, but once I installed 2 more early last summer for a total of 4 covering approx 5000 non contiguious sq ft, they have left the protected areas alone. Due to some activity in my neighbors yard, I made some adjustments to the layout this spring, and noted that my perimiter was tested once again. I'm going overkill and picking up another one to confidently protect my entire lot (1/2 acre) for a mole free summer.

Not This
The only treatment that works is to kill what the moles eat.
Put down something to kill insect larvae, grub-ex or somthing like that.
That works. ... Read more

Works great on ants
We usually have an ant problem every summer. This summer, we were fighting a losing battle, with spraying inside and outside the house, ant traps, etc. Every day, coming home from work, we would find an ant trail somewhere in the kitchen or living room. We bought these Lentek Pest Repellers as a last resort, and were pretty skeptical. However, just one day after plugging them in (we used all 3 units in the kitchen at first), the ants totally disappeared from inside the house. They are still plentiful outside the house, but have stayed off the inside for over 3 weeks now. We have now reduced it to just one unit per room, and the ants have not come back.

Spiders are another issue though. We found daddy-long-legs hanging from the unit the first day we installed them. However, they may have been confused!??? After getting rid of those spiders, we have not seen anymore. We are not sure what the long-term effect on spiders is, but we are totally convinced they work on ants.

So Far So Good
I suggested my mother try these after years of problems with monster waterbugs in her suburban Philadelphia town house. With her living in an urban area blocks away from a river she has tried everything to rid her house of these disgusting creatures. Exterminators are only a temporary fix due to the fact that the waterbugs just leave and go to the adjoining house next door and then come back when the spray wears off. The roach traps get a few of them but didn't stop them from being in the bathroom and kitchen and scattering when she would turn the light on. The insect problems are bad this year due to our mild winter and when she saw them appearing in her bedroom something had to be done.

She installed these Lantek Pest Repellers a week ago and after encountering waterbugs in the spring/summer daily for years she has not seen one in her house since the day she plugged them in. Her home is very small (about 900 sq. feet) and she bought 2 (3 packs) so she was sure to have enough coverage. Although it does not seem to effect the tiny ants from coming in under the kitchen back door (where she has 2 plugged in) she would much rather have ants to deal with than the 2inch Philadelphia waterbugs. Although the neighbors probably aren't to happy right now because all of the critters probably ran to their house. The true test will be the next time we have a drought when the problem is usually the worst. That is when they come into the homes in mass numbers seeking water. But so far so good. I am going to order some myself to see if it helps with the Yellow Sac spiders and the huge numbers of bats that we have in our neighborhood that sometimes get into the homes. I do recommend these, they do work on certain insects but from what I have seen, not ants. The repellers are much smaller than what they appear to be in the photo (about 2x3 inches) which is a plus because we have a 1920 home with baseboard sockets and don't have to worry about them being too large to fit into the receptacle.

Don't waste your money
I read all the reviews wanting to believe that these would help me and crossed my fingers for the half that said yes, they worked. Tonight, I just caught another mouse in my room (where I've got two of these things plugged in). Earlier, I'd purchased one to cover a larger area and although it deters them, I actually think it caused them to run into my room from the kitchen to get away from the noise, as I'd never had them in my room before (In two weeks since buying these, I still saw 2 or 3 mice).

Anyway, my advice is not to waste your money on these. I'm going to start charging the mice rent.

not effective pest control
this seemed to work initially, but after about a month (and, not so coincidentally, when it started to get cold outside) i was finding mouse droppings less than a foot away from the device!
i spoke with a veterinarian that specializes in digusting rodents (rats, mice, guinea pigs, gerbils) and she said that it's just like living next to the train tracks - it emits an annoying sound, but eventually the little suckers get used to it.

Pest Repeller..... NOT!
This was the worst purchase I've ever made in my crusade against the ants and spiders that have taken over my home! I have MORE pests now than I did before. Actually had ants crawling on one of the repeller units. If you're thinking about buying this product... DON'T waste your money. You'd be better off with a couple of cans of Raid! ... Read more

Product Description

AT LAST! A solution to your persistent insect problems. 100% Pure Neem Oil is an organic and natural oil extracted from the Indian Neem tree, which has proven to be harmless to humans and warm-blooded animals, fish, birds and non-targeted beneficial insects such as honey bees, spiders and so on. Neem oil works by interfering with the insect's ability to molt. If a growing insect cannot molt, it will not reach sexual maturity and will therefore be unable to mate and reproduce. This means that within one to three life cycles, all the insects will die of old age and there will be no more eggs left to hatch. Neem oil will solve your bug problems once and for all! Can be used up to the day of harvest on all edible plants. ... Read more

A whole lotta money for very little product
Don't let the size of the box fool you. Even though this item comes packaged in a good-sized box, this product is barely one inch by two inches. It's just a small piece of plastic with some type of pheromone embedded in it. Although it does seem to attract flies for a few days, it doesn't seem to last for very long at all. It's just a tiny piece of flimsy plastic! In my opinion, it's just not worth it.

Amazing!
On my porch in my backyard, there used to be tons of annoying insects flying around, because we live very near to a pond and we have woods. Ever since I got this terrific product, I have been bug free for almost 3 months now!I can go back to having bar-b-ques again! This is the most amazing product ever created! ... Read more

This is a product I feel good about using. Instead of using a chemical like DEET (known to have side effects), this product uses essential oils. (It's always great when a company takes the initiative to make a product friendly to both humans and the environment!) Furthermore, as an avid gardener, I had numerous opportunities to experiment with this product,. It worked like a wonder. I strongly endorse this wristband for anyone who enjoys spending time outdoors. A truly fine product.

I really wanted to love this product. I hate spraying myself with insect repellent, so a simple bracelet was a great solution. I really wanted to love the Bug Off! Wrist Band, but I didn't. I wore it outside for several evening walks and bugs didn't bother me, so it may be quite effective. But the very strong citronella odor was very annoying. If you don't mind walking around smelling like a citronella candle, then this might be for you. I think I'll wait until they come out with the odorless version.

This product seemed to help me although I'm not usually a big target for bugs. My husband, whom bugs like, didn't see a lot of difference when he wore it. I like anything that doesn't involve spraying stuff on me -- so the concept is good.

I think this product actually worked! So many insect repellent products make claims that aren't true. This one lives up to its claims. The mosquitoes are terrible here and I had no problem with them as long as I was wearing this bracelet. The odor is a little strong at first, like a citronella candle, and the bracelet is a little chunky. But overall, considering it kept the bugs away, I'd say it's a great product and I'll buy others for my family. ... Read more

does kill mosquitos, but hard to keep running
It would appear that American Biophysics needed to do a better engineering job. My unit started and ran smoothly through the first propane tank. When it came time to replace the tank, however, I was unable to get the unit to keep running after it started. This became a time-consuming endeavor, trying different propane tanks, repeatedly trying to reset the tanks, using the CO2 cartidges, etc. The people at the propane company, who purged my (second) new tank, seemed to have heard a lot of stories similar to mine. The company did agree to replace my unit with a new one.

Save your Money!! Don't buy anything from this company.
We bought the previous edition of this model in the summer of 2002. It had failed by September and was replaced. We did not have a need to use it in the winter, but it failed again the next summer. We have replaced various parts over and over, quite a few at our own expense. Less than 2 months ago we spent over $200 for the latest "fix". This manufacturer does NOT stand behind its products. At the cost of these machines, one would expect that they would be more that happy to replace these lemons. The fact that they do not makes me think that the newer models are no better than the early ones. MM has suggested that "air in the propane" is a problem. This is the most rediculous excuse ever dreamed up. When filling a propane cylinder, if air is left in it before refilling, the pressure in the cylinder would be excessive since the "air" is compressed to one quarter of its original volume. I view this "excuse" as "blame anyone other than us for our faulty product".

1200 Mosquito Catch and Release Magnet
I bought two of these machines. Had I known of the difficulty in getting one of them to work I wouldn't have bought them. Also, their tech support is that in name only. You call and you're lucky to ever hear a live person on the other end of the phone. I have yet to hear or talk to one. If you leave emails they are responded to automatically. I have replaced and recharged batteries, perged tanks, switched tanks,quick cleaned the thing , covered the little vents on the sides so that the wind won't blow out the flame, and all for nothing.It won't ignite the gas to make the flame to attract the mosquitos.
One machine took a little effort to get going and is working fine. The other one is the Mosquito Magnet from hell.
If they only had good tech support like Gateway or Intuit that would make it all OK, but as far as I am concerned this thing might as well be made in China, and the tech support would come in Chinese. For this very reason I wouldn't buy another Mosquito Magnet. One would think that for almost $1,400.00 you would get more than a recording. And to think that I bought two of the things.

Great, while 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 (and get 6 months warantee on it) or "upgrade" to Pro 2004 for $600 (and get 2 years). 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.

While it runs, it does catch a lot of mosquitos, but when it breaks, it's an expensive lawn ornament. These guys need to admit they have/had problems with their units and replace the defective ones.

Possible problem at high altitudes--beware
We bought the Mosquito Magnet Pro Plus because we live next to a swamp, and I wanted the latest, greatest device to deal with our West Nile virus bearing 'skeeters here in the Colorado Front Range. The unit arrived, and seemed solid and well designed. The only problem was that the thing would NOT stay running. If you check the manual and the troubleshooting info at the American Biophysics website, you find that aside from the possibility of contaminated propane, there is not much help for this problem. Nonetheless, we tried 4 different propane tanks, using the presurized cylinders to clear the unit, the reset gizmo to clear the tank and regulator. All of it was to no avail. So finally, I contacted AmBioPhys, and they immediately agreed to send a replacement, and have UPS pick up the first one. The second one arrived, and after running for 12 hours, it began to do the same thing...would not keep running. So, I called them again.

This time, I got a more competent tech support person, and we discussed the possibility of the altitude in Colorado being an issue. This seemed feasible since there are things like heat sensors that will shut off the unit if they are not hot enough, and, at elevations, the propane does not burn as hot. Well, ABP is not sure whether it's an issue, but they proposed sending me 2 Liberty Plus units in replacement for the Pro Plus, since it's calibration is somewhat different than the Pro Plus. They sent one immediately, and it is working fine. The second is on the way.

Note that the Pro Plus DOES catch mosquitoes, but, they escape when it turns off, so it's pretty much useless, at least for me. During all this, I asked ABP whether they are having a lot of problems with the Pro Plus, and they said that they are not, but you have to wonder, given that I got two units that would not work.

Anyway, their support was acceptable, but I've lost nearly two months of killing the little buggers while this got sorted out. ... Read more
