Indoor And Outdoor
The strongest Flowtron bug zapper on this website is the FC-8800 Mosquito Killer. Whilst the Flowtron BK-15D, the Flowtron BK-40D and the Flowtron BK-80D are meant for outdoor use only, this product can be used both outdoors and indoors. The area it can control flying insects is around 2 acres! So for example this would work perfect for barns, restaurants or retail food stores.
Target: Flies, Mosquitoes And More
It is often used to get rid of flies in bigger areas but it does also attract other flying insects like mosquitoes. And just like all the other zappers by this great brand you are able to insert an Octenol Mosquito-attractant cartridge in case your main goal is to use it as a mosquito killer.
Power And Ease Of Use
Three UV light bulbs with each 40 Watts add up to 120 Watts of lure power. Reflector panels inside the device enhance this power even more, so you can really expect huge attraction of bugs towards this lamp. When entering this lamp the charged grid will definitely kill them after which they will fall into a collection tray that you can easily remove for cleaning. Controlled grid power assures successful kills and besides that you don’t have to worry about clogging of insects or insect remains.

Final Words
Covering 2 acres is quite an amount. But if you need to get the job done, this mosquito killer is here to help. We understand that the typical look of it might not fit everyone’s patio decor. However, if you find a hidden and safe spot nearby you should be just fine.
This product is meant to provide power. We cover loads of gear on our website. From the homepage we always share a little summary, including the area of coverage. If your area is smaller (or even bigger), just scroll through your options. It’s not necessary to spend a lot of money on something you don’t really need. Oh, and by the way, this mosquito killer has a bigger brother as well, known as the bug fighter.
Pay attention to reviews as well. We usually add a link to the sellers page, which covers customer stories as well. However, we always advise to find something for the long run. A zapper that’s weatherproof for example. Something to think about.
Good luck with your purchase and enjoy that “silent” outdoor summer evening!
