 1. What species of bugs does the zappers destroy?
The system will kill most known species of mosquito and any other insect which is attracted by light.
 
 2. How does the zapper unit attract and kill mosquitoes and other biting bugs?
The system attracts bugs by the black light produced  Once attracted they are electrocuted.   Octenol enhance the effectiveness by up to 5 times.
 
 3. Do I need to buy the Mounting Bracket or does one come with the zapper unit?
No the zapper unit is not supplied with a mounting bracket.  Mounting Brackets are available.
 
 4. When do I need to replace the bulb and how?
Bug Zapper bulbs should be replace every season to ensure maximum effectiveness.  The bulbs black light attractancy will diminish over time, so it  is important to replace bulbs even though the bulb still works to maintain insect attractancy.
 
 5. At what height should I mount the zapper Unit?
Generally 6 to 8 feet above the ground. 
 
 6. Where is the best place to mount the unit?
25-50 feet away from the area occupied by humans but between the source of where the bugs congregate. (woods, lowlands, etc). You will receive an instruction manual with your machine which will tell you how to mount the system.
 
 7. Do the Zappers attract and kill all biting insects such as gnats?
Almost all biting insects which fly are attracted to black light.
 
 8. How does the Flowtron zappers differ from a regular bug zapper?
Flowtron have gone to great depths to ensure the life and durability of their units are second to none. Rugged waterproof construction, together with the patented vertical - non clogging grids make their units the best buy on the market.
 
 9. What happens to the dead bugs? Do I need to clean them from the machine?
No you do not have to clean out the killer. The electrocuted bugs fall from the Flowtron machines easily due to the non clogging vertical killing bars. You might have to clean dead bugs off the bottom of the unit. With the unit unplugged a soft bristle brush or a hair dryer will do the trick.
 
10. My bug zapper doesn't work. How can I repair it?
Please look at our maintenance guide to troubleshoot your problem. 
 
11. Would it help if all my neighbors had a zapper installed on their property?
It certainly would help! Each bug killing machine will attract the mosquitoes and other biting flies entering the area  If your neighbors had the same system over time the population of bugs would be vastly reduced.

Yes call us on our toll free 1-877 266 3532 and we will be pleased to discuss your particular bug problem and how to best locate a product to solve it.
