GeckoMan Fly Zapper Indoor

We have had our unit 3 months and it just stopped working! However, both bulbs had blown, putting in the spares it was back in action. Checking what to do and i see the specs for bulb life is 2,500hr which as ours has been on 24/7 is to be expected. It is a fact that 'special' spectrum fluorescents have relatively short lives and affordable LED just do not cut the mustard a these wavelengths. So that said our unit has done a fantastic job at a similar price as fly spray over that time. We have cluster flies in our old house which become zombie flies in the winter. Flying in your food, your tea, your face, into your monitor and then dying on your desk and all the window sills. This unit placed high in the landing/loft area has made a 90% reduction in annoying flies with most of them ending up in the fly tray which in peak time was overflowing once a week. Only downside is the zapping noise as they meet their maker and a baking smell from the fatter ones - our loft area is now the flies "The Green Mile" - haha!

Lots of flies this year. More than usual. And as our garden backs on to dairy pasture, we have had to expect flies every summer, however unpleasant. So, I hit the problem with everything I could find on Amazon. Classic Flypaper had a degree of effectiveness but is very unsightly and unpleasant to manage. We posted that updated version of flypaper everywhere - the sort that comes in the form of those sticky yellow pads and shapes that Amazon sell. And finally, I bought multiple pots of super-ninja hormone fruit fly traps also for sale on the site. Neither the sticky shapes nor the hormone traps did anything at all and were a total waste... The only thing that works is this UV electric unit. It did a great job of keeping the level of invasive winged insects (including flies) to an acceptable level (it reduces the problem by maybe 80% plus). Buy it with confidence, I would say. It works. But don't forget you WILL need to change the UV tubes once or twice a year as their UV output, which attracts the flies, fades over time.

There is no noise while it’s running, but my goodness those flies go with a cracking zap! Made me and the dogs jump the first few times. Sturdy build, sleek design, easy to use, great value for money. Kills flies

Did not work at all. Flies would go inside and walk all over the light bulbs and the metal and never get zapped.

This replaces an old unit which had simply packed up. This unit is used in the home and looks stylish, less industrial and is so much quieter and more effective than the old unit. I love it and so do the plant gnats until they don't! [UPDATE 12 MONTHS ON FROM ORIGINAL REVIEW] Unfortunately this unit failed within 12 months even though I replaced bulbs at the 10 month stage. As it costs twice as much as a similar product with a higher customer rating I have now had to replace with it that unit instead.

I had the pest control in for rats & mice a month ago... They poisoned them so obviously I have dead ones in the loft space and/or walls of my house. This has led to an Infestation of flies. I bought this and can say I'm impressed it works. A lot of flies are drawn to it, some aren't or just take a long time to get there but nothing is perfect. This is the tray after only 48hours of use. Admittedly, I've hand killed just as many as this has zapped but it's halving the work load! Cons - it's not quiet, you can hear the zapp... Good in my opinion though, shows its strong. Also another downside is the smell of flies being fried. Kinda smells like singed/burnt hair which isn't pleasant but liveable knowing the job its doing. Definitely worth buying, I'm thinking of buying another!

I've had an electric fly zapper for a few years now but tend to have to replace them after a year or so. The last one I bought only lasted a year, I thought it was the bulbs so replaced them but it still didn't work. I came across this and decided to give it a go. Had it about a week now and I was wondering if it had actually zapped any flies as I had not heard the 'usual" zap. It is working and the zapper is so quiet you can hardly hear it much to husband and dogs delight who used to jump out of their skins with the last one when it zapped a bug!! Well worth the extra money.

it’s the time of year when pesky flies and other annoying flying insects of all shapes and sizes flock to our country cottage. bought this item as a last resort as fed up with chasing the darned things with an electrified mini tennis racket or a rolled up tea cloth. It’s quiet, it’s effective in that the flying bugs are attracted to it even in daylight though more so when there is less natural light around. There is no annoying hum when turned on and yes there is a small snap crackle and pop when the bugs hit BUT it really did the job and stopped me from breaking many prized possessions chasing the critters around the room. Good value and would recommend.

Verarbeitung/Beschaffenheit: Der elektrische Insektenvernichter ist sehr gut verarbeitet und die verwendeten Materialen wirken sehr wertig.

Mit dem UV Licht der beiden Lannen die ein breites Spektrum abdecken, werden die Insekten angezogen und werden durch das beim Kontakt mit den Insekten unter Hochspannung stehenden Gitter vernichtet dabei gibt ein brutzelndes Geräusch des ansonsten lautlosem Gerät. Die Insektenreste können durch das leeren der Schublade entsorgt werden. Da alle Fluginsekten doch das UV Licht des Gerätes angezogen werden ist das Gerät durchaus effektiv. Preis/Leistungsverhältnis : Bei einem Preis von fast 50€ ist das Preis-Leistungsverhältnis durchaus angemessen Fazit: Eine effektive Form der Insekten Vernichtung. Da ich nichts an dem Gerät auszusetzen habe vergebe ich fünf von fünf Sternen.

Heb dit product gekocht omdat ik wat last had van vliegende insecten in huis. Meteen aangesloten en boven op de kast gezet. Hij maakt een zeer aangenaam zapp geluid als er een insect tegen aankomt. Binnen 1 dag had hij al meer dan 60 insecten afgemaakt. Zeker een aanrader.

the most useless insect killer. DO NOT BUY IT. IT DOES NOTHING AT ALL. ONLY AN EXPENSIVE LIGHT

This is a great effective zapper, the light isnt too bright and the zap isnt so loud it would keep you up at night. But it is extremely effective, when i first set it up I saw a wasp building a nest and when I smacked the nest off the ceiling the wasp went into the zapper. The only thing is there is a strong burning smell when it zaps bugs but guess thats normal not sure first bug zapper I purchased. Comes with a set of replacement bulbs.

el producto es de muy buena calidad y su funcionamiento a sido perfecto, lo recomiendo al 100%.
