The Flowtron 1-Acre Galaxie Power Vac is an effective, affordable mosquito control unit that needs NO propane. Uses multiple attractants to lure insects, then vacuum draws them into trap where they dehydrate and die. U.S.A.

It does work

I ran this thing all year long here in Southern California. Its effect was fantastic. I had no nat problem anymore, although I hardly ever found any insects in the trap. This year it does not work. Why? The attractant needs to be replaced and the light bulbs. You find the attractant on the internet, but so far I am unable to identify replacement bulbs.

Works great when it's colder out

I had a similar more expensive unit that used propane that never caught a single mosquito, and I wouldn't have gotten a new one except I won this in a contest. I started using it in December (in North Carolina) and had to dump the catch tray frequently because it kept filling up. As it got closer to summer, it didn't catch nearly as many. My guess is that when it's a warmer item in the yard it works much better. For what it caught during the colder months, I'm sure it thinned out the population around my house and I'd certainly consider buying another if this one broke.

Flowtron PV-440 -- Seems to Help in MN

We put the Flowtron out 3 weeks ago and have trapped a lot of mosquitoes. We live in the country, and have several ponds within 100 yards - prime hatching grounds for the pests.

What we've noticed is a lot fewer mosquitoes at our back door, having put the device about 50' away near the woods/brush behind out house (at the edge of the lawn). The dogs used to bring them into the house all the time, but it is a lot better now.

I am having trouble finding the refills, so my success may be short-lived.
