Haven't had much luck, am I the only one? Any suggestions? They fly right past these funny little tubes.

They are pure shite. They don’t work, and there isn’t even any face validity to their claims.

Complete junk.
Tried them in Fort Worth.
No effect.
Tried them in other places. Useless.
All hype

Another “didn’t work” column

Yes-I use them as recommended. We also fog once every 3 weeks. That seems to keep our mosquitos at bay.
At our old house, we just used these, and I got my neighbors to use them, also, and we noticed a decrease in mosquitos around our houses.

Not from some tubes with sugar water and yeast with a little salt. It flat out cannot work. Don’t waste your money on these things.
Edit: I was looking for some corroborating evidence of my claims (unlike those chucklefricks at spartan) and found this. Make up your own mind.

Those are a different product than OP asked about.

I can’t tell what the difference is? Did they actually add an insecticide to those?
Either way, it’s impossible for them to contain enough yeast to attract mosquitoes, and I would spend a dime on anything these fraudsters sell.

Dragonflies work better. They eat those blood suckers

I put four of these up on the perimeter of my backyard this fall. I found dead mosquito larvae in two of them.

My step brother swears by them, but it's done me absolutely no good.
On a side note, mosquitoes are swarming in my patio this year and I'm not sure why. Even after dropping to 27deg the other day. Ive got some attractant I can't nail down

My grandma called them mosquito hawks. Every plant she grew on her property was there to attract more of them.

Now that is a different story altogether. Fogging works well. I do it at the camp. My dad bought this giant fogger in the 1980's and I love it.

They will take care of the mosquito problem
Posted on 12/15/23 at 11:19 am to tadman
I find they attract MORE skeeters.
Posted on 12/15/23 at 2:20 pm to tadman
Plant plants that attract dragonflies.
I would not use dangerous chemicals.

Yes they work great. I have two hanging outside arse we speak. They are designed to attract mosquitos to the tubes. Not sure if you guys are hanging to close to where you are when you are outside. Directions say to hang 80 to 100ft from area you are occupying. Hope this helps
