Customers are dissatisfied with the ability of the pest control device to suck. They mention that it makes a lot of noise, and is not powerful enough to engulf insects.

"...But I tried it on a piece of lint, and it wouldn't even pick that up until I was right on top of it...." Read more

Seems Good.

Seems Good.
I'm impressed. I'm vegan and try not to kill the less-predatory insect, and this device has worked well so far. I'm familiar with various insect catching tools that I purchased over the years. One was called the Backyard Safari, which was actually a children's toy for catching bugs. It was also a vacuum and battery operated, but died on me so I purchased this. I'm more happy with this device. Decent suction, and opening hole is wider than the Backyard Safari. Also, this device seems to have a fully sealing lid with little or now cracks for the bug to escape, let's say you're upstairs and catch a bug but are busy with something so you let it sit there for a while, some tiny bugs are able to escape from some of these bug catching devices because they don't fully seal. Backyard Safari had this problem. Time will tell how well it will hold up, but function so far is relatively good.UPDATE:After some use the device fell apart because the glue or bond apparently wasn’t strong enough. I used some JB Weld to put it back together and it’s been holding up well since then. The problem seems to be that over many times of throwing the bugs out by doing a downward swinging action with my hand, eventually the glue didn’t hold and the device fell apart. I didn’t hit it or do anything unusual to cause that, just swung my hand in a downward motion while holding the vacuum to throw the bugs out, but over time this action, combined with the weak bonding of the device, seems to have been the reason it fell apart. However, it’s still working well after all these years and significant usage.
