Summary: Great Product
Comment: I love this product because: IT WORKS!!! Have been using it for many years and will continue to do so. My house will never be without Riddex. I ordered it from Amazon because they had the best price. I have found that Amazon, more often than not, has the best prices on products I like to order from on-line vendors.

Summary: But wait... stay tuned for our Special Offer!
Comment: I have some neighbors who truly love to buy things that they see on the infomercials that appear on late-night television. I won't name them but let's just call them Wally and Wanda, a nice couple approaching retirement age.
Wally is always picking up the phone and responding to the ads and infomercials for "male products" such as Enzyte - Male Enhancement Formula (and yes, they have it here, but more on this at another time).
Wanda, on the other hand is somewhat more practical, and orders such products as The Clapper Sound Activated On/Off Switch, Mighty Mendit, and those SHAM WOW wipes, to name a few. They have a closet full of things like this.
In any case, early last summer Wanda saw a television ad for the Riddex Plus product which promised to turn their home's electrical wiring into "a pest repellent force-field" or something to that effect, and that they were having a promotion during their "chemical free campaign" to help eliminate roaches and rodents. At least that's the way that Wally remembered the dialog when Wanda woke him up to tell him about it.
Then she heard the magic words that went something like: "But wait... order now and get a second Riddex Plus for FREE!" That's all she needed to hear; she picked up the phone and ordered their generous buy-one-get-one-for-free deal. A few weeks later their Riddex Plus units arrived, and a grumbling Wally plugged them in for her, one upstairs and the other downstairs in the kitchen, according to the directions.
It should be noted here that Wanda and Wally have a nice two-story townhouse down the street from me, and it always seems very clean and neat when I'm there. They have never had a "bug problem" in the 12+ years they have lived there. But remember that townhouses share common walls with neighbors, and in their case that have a common wall on each side.
Moving time forward to a couple of weeks ago, and the weather had turned cold. I was returning home and Wally approached and asked me for a bit of help. It seemed that suddenly their home had turned into what Wally was referring to as "the Roach Motel" as for the first time they seemed to have an infestation of cockroaches... as did their neighbors on both sides. Angry accusations about dirty homes were flying back and forth between neighbors, and finally an exterminator was called to take care of three homes in one visit.
Don't know exactly what transpired when the exterminator went into Wally and Wanda's townhouse, but when he went into the kitchen and saw the wondrous Riddex Plus unit plugged into the wall, he is alleged to have pointed at it and told them that there was the problem, and that it was a "roach and bug magnet." Wanda got upset and the exterminator shrugged his shoulders, pointed to their computer and suggested that she "look it up on the Internet."
In any case, Wally and I unplugged the Riddex Plus units (he needed reinforcement) and threw them out, and he told her to just smack any bugs with a shoe or newspaper. Wanda was still looking for a more refined solution that that. I suggested that if she didn't want to hire an exterminator again or smack the cockroaches with a newspaper, then she just go online and get a tennis racket shaped Charcoal Companion Amazing Bug Zapper, load it with batteries and zap the bugs. Wanda said that she couldn't bring herself to do that.
We left it at that, but the next day Wally came up to me, chuckling, and told me that Wanda had ordered the Bug Zapper. Hope that it works better for them than the Riddex Plus units.

Summary: Better than chemicals
Comment: Had a similar product years ago and it worked fine. Living in the tropics (Puerto Rico) the creepy crawly and flying pests are a HUGHE nusense. This product did not completely eliminate them but the roaches are seldom seen (I think they getting smatter at hide-n-seek). No effect on ants, mosquitos or anything that flies and thank God have not seen any rodents which are the size of house cats here and walk the electrical lines with the agility of trapeze artists. They do not put that in the brochures. My BIGGEST complaint about this product is the UNAVAILABILITY of direct mailing to Puerto Rico. Had to use family stateside address and have them Fedex it to me. What's up with the embargo bullcrap? Puerto Rico is a common wealth of the US. And yes we pay taxes down here too! We're not Cuba!

Summary: NO BUGS
Comment: I have had this product for about a month now and have not seen any bugs in my house since. I was having problems with silver fish and an occasional roach. Now it appears all the bugs are gone.
