I've had it going for a week and have no mosquitos! We have West Nile Virus around here so no mosquitos is a must.

What is it? I have GOT to do something. I went out into the yard this morning, and was just about carried away. Running back toward the house, swatting my arms all over the place like a mayniac. I'm sure it was a sight to see. Maybe if the neighbors on both sides of us, and behind us wouldn't keep their yards like jungles.....

I'm interested in hearing about these, too. We are getting them bad and my middle child can play outside for 5 minutes and come back in with welt looking bites all over him, no matter what repellant we use.

Me, too. I have bites from my ankles to my toes.

We have a Mosquito Magnet too and we love it! Last year our mosquitos were terrible thanks to the The"Hee-Haw" neighbors next door. They buy thier kids kiddie pools, then never empty them out. So when the kids want to swim, they just buy another one at Walmart. By the end of the summer, there were at least 5 in their backyard!! You can imagine the mosquitos swarms of mosquitos we had

We got a MM last year on clearance and have had it running for at least 2 months now. The first tank of propane, we didn't catch very many, but oh boy! There are a ton of them in there now!

It's wonderful, now we can actually enjoy our time out in the backyard and not worry about being bitten up, or West Nile.

I have heard the Coleman Mosquito Deleto is not as good.
