 One dollar per mosquitoJun 01, 2005
By Peter Sokolov
After twice sending the unit back to the factory, the unit worked for two weeks and again would not turn on. I tried all the suggestions made by the factory. The following year I opened the unit and tried to see what was wrong. I found totally frozen fan bearings. I suppose that the cartriges to repel mosquitoes are corrosive and corroded the bearings. To end my agonies with the unit, I took it to the garbage dump. The unit is cheaply made and therefore unreliable. When it worked, it worked well. I believe it cost me about one dollar per killed mosquito.

It works!! But Only for a short time!!!!May 03, 2006
By FAT
I purchase my unit a little less than one year ago and now I am shopping for a different brand. It worked fine for the first summer season in Texas, but now that it is spring almost summer--it does not turn on at all. I have completed all of the manual's troubleshooting in addition to purchasing a new bulb and cable for it. But, it does not work anymore after only 1 summer usage! I do not recommend!!!

 Gets the Mosquitoes! No TANK needed!!!!!May 12, 2005
By Thomas
I don?t usually write things like this but having a Mosquitoes Magnet I wanted more protection without the annoyance of refilling and carrying propane around and not to mention the cost. Every three weeks having to buy propane is bad enough! I took a chance on this Galaxie product and I am glad I did its capturing everything in the yard. It appears to works almost as well as the Magnet and theirs no refilling propane! If this keeps up I will buy two more of these units and retire the Magnet. I give this product five stars!

Works so farJul 04, 2006
By Diana P. Willis
"LWT"
Caught hundreds of mosquitos in one night, looks like moths are in there too. Maybe they are after the light inside?
My yard seems to be better to be in, but still getting bitten guess next few weeks will tell.
I paid 1200 for Commercial Pro Mosquito Magnet 2 years ago and it is in the dump now. Biophysics did not stand by there product. So gave this much cheaper option a try. Deep Woods OFF is still my best defense.

Does not work!!Jul 18, 2005
By A. Sierra
"AHS"
I picked up this unit hoping that it would do the job in my backyard, all that it has picked up is a few "flying insects" nothing else. Unless I am missing something, do not waste your money.
