Do they repel flies and other flying insects?

they pretty much kill anything that flies or is bug like. This is why you want to NOT BE IN THE ZONE, when burning them. AND AIR out the area before you go into it for long. They are great...... but use caution for your pets and yourself, PETS COULD BE SERIOUSLY EFFECTED......

Yep. I just tested it. They fit quite snug, so it shouldn't fly out or anything either.

I doubt it because I have geckos and they are not repelled. It works great on things like spiders etc. that nest around the eaves and exterior ceilings of your house.

NO! As near as I can tell, they repel nothing, and after a few months the red motion light doesn't come on any more. A total waste of money.

Yes, I've used it for that as well. It pretty much repels any of those annoying insects.

this particular product does not work for flies and mosquitos. works on ants, roaches, spiders, and several others in this bracket.

I don't know if it repels frogs, but I will say I have bought 7 solar pest repellers and this is the ONLY one that worked from the start and is still working...the others are in the dump. They were different brands.

Yes they do catch them. I am using eight of them right now and had about two bugs within two weeks time. But as the other posters said they do crack easily. During my last inspection I noticed several of them are cracked.

The PestChasers® will repel rodents such as mice and rats. They would not be recommended to repel squirrels.

Yes, it's a tightly woven mesh, and these help with this annoying problem. As long as you make sure there is no other uncovered food source for the displaced flies to go to, they will eventually die out.

It is listed in the description, but I don't have that problem. The product does keep insects outside.

They definitely don't work for mosquitoes in backyard so I would not recommend them for any other type of insect. There were flies, yellow jackets, etc. all around. It was not a repellant, more like an attractor. Hope this is helpful.

Yes. We use it to repel gnats and mosquitoes. Unless we're headed into tick territory it's all we use.

Yes they do.also the fly that lays the eggs that turn into leaf miners.its all about the color yellow.

Well, I'm not sure cause those fruit flies are so darn tiny I suppose they could slip thru the mesh, but if ya hit them they will be zapped'! I bought one as a Christmas gift for my son and he's successfully zapped flies and crickets (so far). One person told me it only stuns bees, but works great on other flying insects. My daughter and her partner are moving to Conn. in May and they bought one cause they were so pleased with how well it works and think it will come in very handy with all the flyin' bugs there! I know several people who have them and they are ALL pleased. Good luck!

My experience has shown that each of the safe repel products available on the market work with some insects and not others, and it depends on the part of the country and the particular species/sub-species found there. Ticks are not insects, so none of the products will be as effective against them, and since ticks carry several diseases, it is wise to take other precautions when you're in tick territory.

a proper response to this question - YES it will keep mosquitoes away, if you point it at them. This is a FAN, not a mosquito repellant
