Finishing putting it together now. Just picked up a propane tank earlier.

Going to (hopefully) fire it up in an hour or so, and we shall see if it does anything.

    If it makes it two years, and works, I'll happily pay another $375 on two years :)

    The name is the best part, unless of course it works as well as it says. :cool:

    What I've always heard, is that those things don't really work that well, unless you get all of your neighbors to use them too. Otherwise, the Co2 is going to attract all of the mosquitos from everyone elses yard into yours.

    I don't have any personal experience with them, but that's what I've heard from a few people that have owned them before.

    Hopefully that isn't the case for you.
