I bought two of these for around my home. I placed them near areas where I have the most mosquitoes- near my front door and in my back yard. I live in East TX and due to the heavy rain this winter; the mosquitoes are out in full force! I can finally open my front door without mosquitoes coming in!!! I can't believe it!!! I would give this a 10 star rating if it let me. I think all the reviews that say it doesn't work, have it placed in areas that do not have many mosquitoes. I have had it up for a week and a half, and already have had a 1/2 cup full of dead mosquitoes. It does kill a few moths, etc, but around my house, mostly mosquitoes. I highly recommend this product!

I bought this 2 years ago, and ran it all summer the first year. I caught 3 mosquitos ALL summer. There were many in my back yard that year. The second summer, the unit remained in storage, as it was not even worth the cost of electricty to run it. It is still in storage, and will soon be sent to the dump.

Caught tons of mosquitoes and flying bugs while it worked. When the bulb burnt out I easily replaced the bulb, however, the bulb did no work. Thinking it was the bulb, I swapped it out with another new bulb. The second new bulb did not work either. So now I have a trap that will suck in bugs should they accidentally fly in it... definitely nothing there now to attract them.

We had to come in at dusk because the mosquitos would eat us alive. We lived near a nature area. Had ours four years with no problems. Had to buy a replacement bulb just recently. We leave it on 24/7 and clean it out once a month or sometimes longer. Have a paper plate to cover top in case any bugs just got trapped. Just keep away from lights so it attracts mosquitos, gnats, moths. Our neighbors are also benefiting from the Dyna trap. Thanks

My husband and I bought one of these traps about 6 weeks ago. We were hesitant to buy based on the reviews but went ahead and tried it. So far, we've been very pleased with the trap. The cord is short so we used an extension cord to plug it in. It's super quiet. We have put it under our covered back deck. We both have noticed a significant reduction in mosquitoes as well as moths and even flies/beetles/wasps. We are able to sit on the back deck at night or any time of day for that matter and not use bug spray which is saying something since we live in AL near a creek in the summer time. My husband had been seeing swarms of mosquitoes hang around our back windows. At night, we are not having to swat 5 thousand moths out of our faces when we have the porch light on. I am not saying that it is 100% because every blue moon I do get bit on my leg but it's not enough to justify me applying bug spray. It says that it covers 0.5 acres but I haven't decided if it does go that far. I still spray if I go outside to do yard work. The reason I gave it 4 stars is that when you go to clean the trap out, anything that hasn't died from being trapped will fly out. I will say that less and less have flown out each time we've emptied it. A few things we have learned: -Do not try to open it up 24 hrs after because most of what is trapped WILL fly out. Give it time for the bugs to die - check in 2 or 3 weeks. -You have to keep it plugged in 24/7 in order for it to work. If you just plug it in while you are outside, you will capture bugs but they will escape once you turn it off. I know this seems like common sense but we've had a couple of friends that did this and were wondering why it wasn't working. -It does captures some flies but we have added a fly trap to supplement.

We live close to the local river which is prime breeding ground for the pesky mosquitos . We could not walk outside to put something in the recycle bin without getting bitten . We had a local company coming to spray once every 21 days and it helped a little . We decided to invest in the Dynatrap and I am glad that we did because we can actually go out side again ! When we have friends over they ask how we are able to keep the pest at bay and we show them the Dynatrap . If you follow the instructions I do believe that it works . One thing I will say is that you need to know that it's electric operated so you do have to plug it in . Would recommend

I read the reviews before purchasing this DynaTrap Insect Trap with Pole Mount. I must proclaim the negative reviews were not true in my case. I live out in the country, a swamp behind my house, many many cattle farms, with cotton fields, and peanut fields. I have had this InsectTrap on for a week now, 24/7 and when you turn the front light on to go out or to welcome company, "There are NO FLYING BUGS" Whatsoever. Thank you Sam's Club for selling a valuable product.

I just purchased this yesterday. It has been running for 24 hours near my back deck and I now have a pile of dead mosquitos in the canister. Assembled easily, without tools, in about 5 minutes. Much more user friendly than similar larger propane devices I've used in the past. So far, I would say well worth the money.

I've purchased two of these this year. First, I have to clean the fan daily because the insects get caked on and around the blades making the fan stop. On one unit, the light bulbs only last about six weeks. On the other unit, the light fixture stopped working all together.

I have had this bug zapper for three months. Doesn't really attract anything but moths. Dumped the bug body holder and only a third of the bugs were actually dead. Lovely to see. The bulb burnt out and it took me 40 minutes to replace. Instructions on replacing are laughable at best. Once replaced the bulb immediately burnt out. I will be returning for a refund. I would give 0 stars but you cant.
