Does this kill on contact, or is it over time?

This product will kill on contact, but it has to be direct contact. There is no lasting effect. So, you cannot pretreat an area. The bugs can and do return to an area that was previously treated.

does not say what stopped working. However static electricity generated from walking across rugs has a high enough voltage to kill a microcircuit. Electronic assembly stations for circuit boards are protected by a wrist strap grouding the operator.

No, it dies not. I don't know why this picture continues to be shown for this product. The product has been changed to a one piece nail on. Not the great product is was--I don't know why the company changed it.

I'm not sure why it died. I've used it almost everyday but never faced any issue. May be u got a faulty item. If u want anything else let me know.

it goes after a while of inactivity, not instantly, but really its an energy saver, no complains on consuming too much battery anyhow..good luck!

As stated by others, I had this same result. I used a gentle swab and cleaned the contact points and reset the ribbon and no issues since.

From my experience, it comes off without any trace. However, it will take awhile to take down.

It seems pretty failure proof. It works unless the battery is dead. You just change the battery. If you just put it on and it is not registering, moisten the contacts, or wait until your sweat does the job. Hope this helps/

I found that whether it runs them off or kills them it lasts for at least a week depending on the weather. It kills the ones it comes in contact with and then leaves a residual on the leaves that either kills them or runs them off. I live in AZ so little rain to wash it away so it lasts up to a month in the summer. Just be careful & use it with very little to no wind. Plus stand up wind of whatever breeze there is & watch you don't spray yourself in a corner & have to hold your breath to get out! I've been there; done that.

For know it hasn't done that to me, and I had it for quite while now. Over eight months at least. So it should be fine for a long time period. I will update my answer if it turns yellowish.

It does not kill the battery. Works really well, I have had no issues or concerns so far.

No! That's part of the contact system. And be gentle with it or it will break off.

That is what this product claims to do... However it did not seem to work. Not sure if you have to continuously use it for a long period of time.

Depends on the damage - clean the surface but it uses an adhesive so the more surface contact the better.

"No" on all concerns. I've been using mine regularly for at least a couple years, and no such concerns. Still works like new.
