Yeah. We have ours on a timer so it's only on in the time when we are usually out in the evening.

I'm shocked. This is an electrifying smokin' hot Slick Deal.I bought the 1/2 acre version in July for $45 bux to replace an older one of the same manufacturer that I've had for many years only because it was dropped and broke. These are solid units made in USA, not at all like the cheap chi-com copies that are out there. I know because I did much research before buying the exact Flowtron replacement that I did. I was also pleased to see that they have updated the electric grid design over the old one to a much better one.Made in USA and 50% off at $35bux. Definitely an electrifying Slick Deal, IMHO.
Lol trying to promote junk.

Not junk. I've had mine 9 years, works flawless. Underwriters Laboratory certified, made in USA.
I use mine in the garage and have a bucket under to catch the deads. The problem is that it kills everything, so if you're targeting mosquitos you're also killing fireflies, butterflies, dragonflies, moths, and other nocturnal insects.

This will break on you in one year but it's not the bulb - it's the starter- remove the top, replace the burner starter with a $2 starter from HD or Lowes and it will last forever

This is a fantastic deal. I actually have 2 of these and they are insect murder machines (mosquitos, flys, moths, grasshoppers, june bugs, spiders, gnatts, and more). I change the bulb at least once per year to maintain effectiveness, but the housing is sturdy. I have not had any issues with it. To clean it, a strong air duster in combination with a brush usually does the trick.

It doesn't have a timer on it, so I just put it on a smart plug to have it automatically turn on and off at certain times of the day.

May be a dumb question... do people put these closer to your house so bugs go to it and die... But more bugs are around or do you put it further from your house so hopefully the bugs stay away and die

I have used them in people's homes, commercial buildings and churches during those unusual massive fly hatches. Turn room lights off. That is the best use for these. Since these are open bottom, best to have a 5 gallon bucket of water below when some are just stunned, they all drown. Or just put on a steel plate or piece of plywood. Vacuum daily.
