Zerostat Milty really?

Ok. So I have massive amounts of static at times when playing vinyl. So much so that it can pull my arm from my table (Thorens TD-124) onto the platter when removing the lp. I am worried I will ruin my stylus when it hits. So I bought the Zerostat and have been using it according to the instructions and the static is still out of control. Is this thing for real or what? Am I doing something wrong? Please help.

Purchase a humidifier. Your air is too dry. BTW, I just saw a video about an anti-static device that sits next to your TT and has a swing-over arm that hangs over your record and emits anti-static ju-ju to zap static.
Can’t remember where I saw video, probably RMAF show on YouTube. Also, Zerostat used to be 10 times more powerful (in the '70s) But parents got worried about causing genetic damage to their children so Zerostat changed the product to its current, pathetic (IMO) form.

@slaw Sir (?), I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. So I'm guessing that makes two of us...
