Reply With QuotePoppycock. I've put 2 up in the house - caught exactly NONE of the abundant flies. One moth, that's all.
On a different aspect of camping, can I recommend a $6 packet of flypapers. I know they're disgusting, but so is having your food covered in flies. Sprays are useless outdoors.
Hang up a flypaper somewhere the better half won't walk into it and you'll halve the number of flies with no effort. Throw it in the bin when you leave. Simple.

SubscriberI carry the usual 2 burner gas stove and small bottle .
However there are times when weather is foul so have a box with an Origo metho stove which is safe to use in the Mulgo camper.It's also a heater too if there is a convenient terracotta pot available

One major draw back of LPG is when the temperature drops. Try cooking with them in a frosty environment and see how far you get!

What is the difference between a gas stove and a metho one as far as indoor use is concerned? Lots of people use gas stoves at home!

Maybe we're expecting too much out of what really is a smallish motor allready pushing 2 tonnes. Just because it's a v8 doesn't mean it's powerfull.

Hi, I find the metho Trangia stove soots the bottom of what ever is being heated.
Trangia is better in windy conditions than gas stoves.
Gas is easier to adjust the heat.
Decanting the required amount of liquid is more convenient some times than fuel in canisters.

SubscriberBurning gas produces carbon monoxide. (CO) In a house you have a large area in the kitchen and most kitchens have a range hood which would vent the CO
In a small confined area you risk CO poisoning.
There was a case not far from me where two young children died from CO from a faulty wall furnace heater.

That's indicative of a butane stove, propane (which is the major constituent of LPG) doesn't have a problem - unless you are considering camping in the Antarctic winter as boiling point is -42deg, butane is -0.5deg.
I haven't had problems in temps down to -8deg (at least not with the gas).
