Nothing is more annoying than relaxing the constant buzzing of flies and mosquitoes on a summer evening while trying, in the warm sun.

Now, admittedly, only in place for a little over a month since HAS to have this time-it was a reduction in the number of marked-bugs and flies buzzing around either, or dead in the winter garden, almost to the point of absence. Does "busy" times of the fizzing of the flies on the electrified grid Heard, but the noise is strangely satisfying, and a sure sign that it works. Fortunately, the UV lamps are not too bright sun are not annoying at night - in all honesty I do not really notice em now.
