 Still fighting MosquitosJul 06, 2009
Unfortunately someone sprayed the unit with water and ruined the motor so I used it only for two weeks before this happened. The only positive I can offer is it did operate very quietly. I had it placed as the instructions directed, however during the two weeks of operation the bag contained only one musquito plus a few other small flying insects. I would not recommend this product at any price.
Do not waste your money!Jun 13, 2009
I have had this item for over two weeks and have tried it in a couple different places in the yard. The mosquitos (and flies) are still attracted to the dogs and people more than this foolish machine. I have emailed the company several times with questions and have received not one response. It has caught less than 10 mosquitos in two weeks time. Definitely a disappointment and waste of money. Should have gotten a good old-fashioned bug zapper!

Does not workMay 16, 2009
It simply did not catch any mosquitos all summer long. I saw mosquitos flying all around it, but there were never any in the capture bag. It does not work.

 A good little mosquito trapFeb 09, 2009
This little trap worked wonders for me as a secondary trap to an Ultra. The Utra is used out in the garden and does most of the work while the alpha I use around the house closer to our decks as a secondary defence. Catching mosquitoes is a little bit like fishing, it sometimes takes a bit of time experimenting with locations and settings which is why I think some people get frustrated. If you think you can just plug these things in and have all your mosquitoes magically disappear in a week, you will be disappointed. A little bit of trial and error and you will be pleasantly surprised.

Great Mosquito TrapsJan 31, 2009
Last season mosquitoes and midges were so severe the backyard was placed "off limits". I'd seen Megacatch traps advertised in SkyMall and liked the fact that they don't burn propane 24/7 like other mosquito traps, something I find really scarey with young children running around.We decided to go all out and buy 2 Alphas and an Ultra. After reading the instructions carefully on where best to place them (this is key!) within two weeks our problem was largely gone. We still got a few mosquitoes but the backyard was ours again. They're easy to look after and it's so simple to change out lures and empty the catch containers (can't say the same for my printer ribbon tho!). Can't thank you enough Megacatch.
