There are not enough words to tell you how much I LOVE this product!!!!  When I can save money I will be purchasing another.  The first night, like others, I was like----uhhhh it isn't working! But the second night the mosquitoes came in droves and the zapping fun began! :) You definitely will want to put this away from your seating area. It's a blood bath. (Pun intended). Also the zapping sounds can get a lil obnoxious but to be able to sit on my back patio of several acres and NOT be eaten alive..........HEAVEN!
