Ohuhu Electronic Bug Fly Zapper Mosquito Killer



This Ohuhu Electronic Bug Fly Zapper Mosquito Killer is a lot better than I was expecting. I had used a solar bug zapper in the past that didn't seem to do anything. So I wasn't sure what to expect out of this. The pictures made it look like it was meant to be at a gas station or something. I just wasn't sure it would help with our issue of house flies.

We live in a rural area, but we have trash pick up. The problem is the only convenient place to put our outdoor trash can is right by our back deck. I have back issues and if I want to be able to take the trash our, moving the outdoor trash can anywhere else is not a possibility.

Unfortunately flies get into the trash, then when we have nice weather and I want to open the back door we end up with flies in the house. These aren't your average flies either. These are brave, land on your face, and land on your cup of coffee with it 2 inches from your mouth kind of flies which are a pain in the butt. Surprisingly this Ohuhu bug zapper works beyond what I was expecting.



What You Need to Know About the Ohuhu Bug Zapper:


- Works on at least flies, moths, and mosquitoes.

- Works fast.

- Draws in the bugs quickly.

- Occasionally you will see a bug get zapped and it will smoke a tiny bit. This is normal since it is zapping the fly.

- Tray is easily removed to dump dead bugs.

- Bugs stuck to the zapper fall off if you tap the front of the zapper.

- Indoor or Outdoor We've had success using in our kitchen, bedroom, and back deck.

- Can be hung or just sat on the floor.

- Powerful 20 Watt: Two 10 Watt UV light emits wavelength light to effectively attract insects towards the electricity panes with up to 10,000 working hour lifespan

Covers up to a range of 320 square feet.






Overall this Ohuhu Electronic Bug Zapper is awesome. I am so glad we got it. Flies are nasty creatures, and other than tics, they are my least favorite bug. I am glad to know that we now have an easy way to get rid of them without me spraying poison around my home or my dog chasing them down and eating them like they are a snack!

Easy@Home Deluxe TENS Unit Muscle Stimulator For Fibromyalgia and Sciatica



I have fibromyalgia and a bad back. My spine needs surgery which I keep refusing to get because I have heard to many horror stories. Unfortunately because of the two things combined sometimes my paid can be beyond miserable. I get horrible sciatica, so I was really hoping this Easy@Home Deluxe TENS Unit Muscle Stimulator would ease that. Thankfully it does help.

If you are using this for sciatica put on sticky around the lower back part where pain starts, then the other sticky on that side can go about halfway down your butt. It knocks the pain out temporarily to where it is at least manageable. Best and easiest to have someone who can help you hook it on.





What You Need to know About the Easy@Home Tens Unit-

 



  • 6 location settings, but one is the neck, and I don't think this should be used on the neck. I tried my lower back of neck and it got yanked off real fast!
  • Timer lets you set for 20, 40, or 60 minutes so it will go off on it's own.
  • 10 speed intensity is great. Start at low number and work your way up.
  • I have used this for 6 nights in a row and it is still working great, and sticky pads are still sticky.
  • It can reduce muscle pain, but for severe pain have some common sense and don't expect this to cure you.
  • It's less than $40, don't expect it to perform like a $500 piece of equipment.
  • It helps a lot for sore achy muscles, my fibromyalgia, and my sciatica. 
  •  



Overall I love it. For such an affordable price I was honestly a bit surprised by how well it works on me. If you want to order your own Easy@Home TENS Unit, you can find one here.

iJoy Matte Finish Premium Rechargeable Bluetooth Wireless Headphones



I got these iJoy Matte Finish Premium Rechargeable Bluetooth Wireless Headphones for my 10 year old to go with his new phone. I have realized that any headphones with cords or wires are a no go in or house. They always end up with shorts in the wires. Headphones are without a doubt a must around here. With three kids, all 3 with tablets, and 2 with phones I just don't want to hear the constant noise from the devices. We have tried lots of Bluetooth headphones and ear buds. These are a very cool set.



What you need to know:

  • These are Bluetooth so no wires
  • Volume and sound can be changed on the side of the headphones. Every button you need is right there for you.

  • Adjustable for comfort. I tried them on myself, and my 10 and 12 year old's both tried them too. Good fit for all 3 of us.

  • You can insert a micro sd card if you don't want to have to deal with bluetooth.

  • They withstand my son walking about 40 feet from his tablet with no issues.

  • They look very nice. Color on the Orange is great, and the silicone type feel is nice.

  • Collapsible

  • Battery Life is 6-8 hours

  • Come in multiple colors for everyone in your house! 






Overall the iJoy Matte Finish Premium Rechargeable Bluetooth Wireless Headphones are awesome. Especially if you don't want to pay an arm and a leg for a pair. If you want to get your own pair you can find them here.

YUEDGE Double Ultralight Portable Nylon Hammock



Did somebody say Hammock? Hammocks are my secret little obsession. Can someone ever have enough hammocks? I mean I don't like having to take down the yard hammocks, and as a family of 5 I am not going to spend an hour taking down and packing the hammocks every single time we plan on going to the lake for the day. So the more hammocks the better around here.








This YUEDGE Ultralight hammock is super easy to put up. It comes with the ropes and Two Carabniers. On top of that the stuff sack is attached to the hammock, but if you want even easier storage it also comes in another bag that can easily be stuffed.

- 100% Brand new and High Quality
- Durable, colorful and portable
- Easy to be cleaned and dry quickly after being wet

ChiroDoc Heated Coccyx Cushion - Ergonomic Seat Cushion - Perfect For Coccyx & Tailbone Pain Relief



I have severe issues with my spine. I have 3 herniated disks, 2 of which are in my lower lumbar, with a diagnosis of Degenerative disk disease likely coming soon. Unfortunately because of these issues I often dial with painful sciatica and nerve pain that runs between my hips, through to my coccyx, and down my legs. The only relief I get is usually from laying in a hot bath. The pain relief is minimal, but then I lose that relief as soon as I get out of the tub. On top of that, climbing in and out of the tub when sciatica is bothering me is hard to do. So I was really excited about trying this heated coccyx cushion.



What you need to know about it:

  • The heat starts out very slow, you'll think it isn't going to heat up, but it will.
  • Sitting on it while it heats up helps you better tell how hot it will get.
  • Wearing jeans or thick material is going to make this less effective. Ideally wear something thin.
  • The USB cord is 4 feet 8 inches long. So it can easily hook to your computer.
  • It does not come with a wall plug, but if you have the type of regular charger plug that allows you to unplug your USB, then you can plug this into that, and use it with the wall outlet.
  • The cushion is 3 inches thick.
  • The cover removes easily.
  • You can plug into a car charger.








Overall I am very happy that I have found something to give me at least a little bit of comfort without the struggle of having to climb in and out of the tub when pain is bad. I think this would also be a great product for women with painful back pain during their menstrual cycle, plus side if you are cramping you can lay on your stomach on it. I'm happy about this heated coccyx cushion!


3 inch memory foam!

I-Mate 7-day Programmable Digital Timer Switch



Are you tired of having to remember to turn something on or off every night? Would like to know that you don't have to worry about remembering an extra thing to do at the end of a long day? I know I had a bad habit of forgetting to turn off the aquarium every night. By the time the day is over, I get the kids in bed, and manage to clean up a bit of the mess around the house my poor fishes are the last thing on my mind.






Don't worry they are well cared for, they just have no sense of day or night. I always remember to turn it on in the mornings because that is when I feed them, but I just hate the hassle of remembering to turn it off at night. So this I Mate Programmable Digital Timer Switch is now making my life easier and my fish might actually start knowing what it is like to have a full night of dark.

This digital time is easy to set up, and best of all, once you have it set up you don't have to worry about it anymore! It just keeps on working without giving it another thought.






Since my fish light is plugged into a power strip, I just plug the power strip into the timer. At Christmas time we put our Christmas tree near this same spot, so we will now be able to plug our Christmas tree lights into the power strip and the timer will turn them off at the same time it turns off the aquarium.

So no matter if you are looking for something to turn off your computer, your kid's video game system, Christmas lights, your lamp, or even just to keep your house lit while you are on vacation the I-Mate Programmable Digital Timer is your solution. You can find one for yourself here.
