DynaTrap DT160 1/4 Acre Mosquito Trap & Flying Insect Trap – Kills Mosquitoes, Flies, Gnats, Wasps, & Other Flying Insects – Mosquito Zapper & Bug Zapper Outdoor Alternative – Black

First night and it is already full of tons of bugs, including many mosquitos. I live in Georgia, so there are tons of bugs… I’m pleased so far!

This is the worst product i have ever used. Of the 10,000 mosquitoes present it has captured maybe 50 in past 2 months of continuous use. Yesterday i was swarmed by at least 20 mosquitoes at once. I dumped it once after a week with maybe 15 mosquitoes and about the same number of moths and it has been running continuously since and it might have 25 to 50 bugs in it now most not the little biting vermin it is supposed to catch. I took a chance and lost I am going back to a bug zapper. This is a terrible product. It was placed in a soft building (tent) 24x40 with a 8” gap at the bottom open to the outside.

Arizona might be know for our hot temps but in the summer - especially when we get a good monsoon season - we get our fair share of mosquitos. And no matter how consistent you are with your screen doors they get inside the house - and with house plants about they have their chance to multiply…PROS: Simple light attractor - airflow spring loaded trap mechanism when shut off and no expensive bait needed.Moreover this unit is great to actively control those munching moths that are so interested in eating anything wool as well as No-See-Ums.With Mosquitos and No-See-Ums now being considered a vector of viral infection on top of pesky, pervasive piranha of the skies … this unit does a good job at all three of these pests - especially indoors.CONs: Out of doors - even if run with a timer for evening use only - the trap needs to be emptied - if not it can trap so many moths that the trap might not totally close when powered off.True to their copy the unit last about 3 years - where the failure turns out to be that they will not sell you a replacement bulb - so the attractor dims and its effectiveness in equal measure over that time.If they were more environmentally attuned company - they would consider the importance of NOT needing to buy new units and allow for the sak,e and replacement of the light - and if and if needed the fan motor.That said with the price (mostly due to market competition) now roughly 1/2 that of when we first purchased our first unit - they’re an even better investment than they were at first!

Mosquitoes aren't attracted to this trap. I even tried mosquito lure bait and the mosquitoes just aren't interested except for the lone one that gets too close and sucked in.The mosquito love my black colored puppy which makes me think they camp out in the grass lawn.I'm hopeful for the Spartan traps, dunks, and natural repellent grain. Maybe the dunks will kill enough to stop the breeding cycle.Btw, I read mosquitoes aren't attracted to the dynatrap light. This makes sense because the light breaksdown the CO2 which mosquitoes are attracted to.Spartan mosquito traps: After 1 month using a set of two spaced 75 feet apart 5.5ft of the ground in dense mosquito territory: Between the two traps: they caught zero mosquitoes, 5 ants, 6 spiders. Very disappointed. My area is home to about 10 different mosquito types.I also tried qty 2 Dynatraps (even with mosquito lure, they only caught the aimless mosquito which got too close to the suction fan; they didn't make an impact).I also tried planting citronella which doesn't do anything unless it's cut, processed, liquefied and applied to your skin; too much work.I'm hopeful for mosquito dunks in nearby pond, first batch/month didn't seem to do much; trying second batch.Next endeavor is to encourage dragonflies which eat mosquitoes or mosquito fish.Last resort is industrial spray backyard.Update:Attached photos after 2.5 months usage of two traps 100 feet apart in summer SC area with wooded backyard, grass, overflow pond.Spartan traps did nothing (embarrassment).Mosquito dunks: questionable results, not convinced.Powdered granular natural repellent is just short lived and not worth the cost.Next tests will be: increasing dragonfly population and propane driven repellent.

I bought specifically for gnats inside. First time having a problem in the neighborhood. Placed in small bathroom with plants. Did not move it and it seemed to drastically reduce the numbers. Happy so moved it to the breakfast area near the kitchen (people saying they are coming out of the sink drains). Appears to catch gnats but if it is moved, you will find underneath on the counter, there are dead ones and live ones running around. You need to be quick with a wet paper towel to get them. There are slit holes in the bottom of the catch container and they get out through them I believe. Used painters tape to seal 4 long slits and still occurring. Noticed shorter slits around edges. Will tape them to see if that works.

I absolutely think this thing is GREAT! It works in the Deep South in HOT weather.

It isn't terribly effective and it isn't weather proof. It helps a very small amount but that isbt the big problem. The power box (plug in) filled with water after the first rain.

The product is super easy to use. There is no on/off switch. Just plug it in and it works. I have it plugged into a Kasa SmartPlug that I have set on a timer for night time. I keep my window open at night to get fresh air coming in. I don't have a screen. The mosquitos were eating me alive until I got this. The only problem I have is it kills moths. I don't have a problem with moths. The moths fly in then fly out. The mosquitos population has gone down since I got this. I didn't need to use is last night because it did it's job. The bottom unscrews and the part with the flaps comes off. I dump it out the window or I dump it on my fly trap.
