Great Insect Trapper

This is an insect trap not a bug zapper. It seems to do well at attracting insects to its UV light then sucking them into the base with a quiet running fan. What I don’t like is the insects sit in the base to die for several days. You definitely do not want to open the base inside or live insects will fly out. Overall it does a great job catching insects and makes time in the deck more enjoyable!

Super quiet and effective way to eliminate bugs

This is my second one. I have one in the front yard and one in the back yard. It emits no smells or chemicals, but rather gives a rather soothing blue light. You don't hear any zapping sounds and the fan that propels it is super quiet. Just twist the top to turn it off, then you twist the bottom to open and pour out the bugs. Super easy to set up and use. The mount and chain we bought separately, but it was easy to do.

Zap those bugs

We got this with high hopes that it would be more effective and efficient than the old school bug zappers. It did ok in comparison. Still killed bugs but not as many as we hoped. I do like the canister feature. It is nice that the light also comes with 2 replacement bulbs.

Bug zapper but very quiet

This lamp is really effective. I’ve hung it off my deck about 15’ where we sit. So far I’ve had to empty the basket several times.. It really draws the bugs in. It’s very quiet and I’ve had it on for several weeks, rain or shine. I recommend it for anyones backyard.

Would not be without

I love this product! It is quiet and no zapping bugs. It sucks in the bugs in the basket. Amazing that it came with two extra bulbs for a total of the bulbs. Just hang at suggested height and plug in. I will get ordering more. The basket collected moths and mosquitoes quickly. Would not be without one.

This works

nice product. It looks attractive and is all ready to go right out of the package. The first night was very productive. I was amazed at how many insects were trapped inside the bottom storage area. So as I understand it, the light attracts mosquitos and also other bugs and it sucks them in and deposits them in the bottom storage area. They are trapped there until you empty them out. I was surprised when I opened it up to dispose of them and found them alive and eager to get out. Now that I know that I am able to quickly put the storage container into a bag and empty the dead and alive bugs and throw them away in the bag. This is not a deal breaker. The only reason I didn't give this a 10 was that you need to plug this in. That means I am running an extension cord out by our pool area and it doesn't look nice and can be a trip hazzard. I would say that this is a good product and am happy with it.

Great Mosquito Trap

I have found this mosquito trap to be one of the best I've had. It almost immediately began drawing in mosquitos. The one downside is that the 5 foot cord could be longer to facilitate placing it farther away from where people congregate (as suggested on instructions).

Has to be plugged into an electrical outlet

Received the Dynatrap a little over a week ago. Wanted to see how it performed before I reviewed it. My biggest problem with it is you have to place it near an electrical outlet. Since I don’t feel comfortable using an extension cord it needs to be placed near our home which is were we are when outside so it doesn’t really work for us. The unit itself does help with the mosquitos but definitely want a unit that does not plug into an outlet.

Bugs don’t have a chance with us.

This thing is amazing. I wish that I would’ve had the forethought to take a picture of all the bugs we got after just 48 hours. I only wish that we had it earlier in the summer, as it would have made our time in our pool a lot more enjoyable. Mostly what we have been getting are various types of moths. The box says that this is something that it could catch however we have not had that experience. I can say that I am only slightly disappointed in that because when you empty it not all of the bugs are dead therefore I’m not quite sure how a wasp would react if it was still alive and was released. The only negative that I would say in this product as it recommends that you have it approximately 30 to 40 feet away from where there is a lot of people however the cord is much shorter than that. We have to put it out using an extension cord. Otherwise I love this product I may try moving it to the front And seeing if we get different results however it does state to keep it away from other light sources which is why I didn’t start in the front.

AMAZING!

The DynaTrap is AMAZING!!! I could not believe how much it reduced the amount of mosquitos in our backyard. Before we got the DynaTrap we couldn’t enjoy sitting outside on our back porch, now we can sit outside all evening without getting eaten up!
