Dynatrap DT2030SR 1 Acre Outdoor Insect Trap

Had it for less than 30 days and stopped working

Compre este equipo para disminuir el flujo de mosquitos en mi casa y no funcionó, el flujo sigue igual.

Increíble, pedí este dispositivo a través de Amazon España y lo enviaron desde América y modelo americano que no se puede utilizar en la red europea. No se menciona en ninguna parte que sea un modelo americano. Tuve que devolver el dispositivo por mi cuenta, que costó 266 €.

Manca la presa Europea, ha solo quella USA! Appena acceso con la presa Europea ha funzionato 3 minuti e poi ha fatto un rumore strano e… morto! Non si accende più… Una vera truffa. Vergognoso. Buttato nella discarica.

One of my best investments it’s great at catching mosquitoes it’s easy to clean very durable just plug in and leave it very bright at nite I would definitely recommend it and it’s true that 80% of mosquitoes are gone thank god my mother can seat on our deck now it’s assembly is awesome and also very durable no need for batteries

I was more than a little skeptical when I first heard about the DynaTrap on a radio Garden show that claimed it can cover 1/2 to 1 acre of property, but I have trusted the shows host on a number of things so I ordered it through Amazon. It took several weeks to arrive, as they were backlogged with orders as I am sure they are each Spring to Summer. The trap feels very light so you won't have to worry about a heavy or large hook to hang it. I installed it on the far edge of the patio but still under cover. I did not want the rain to soak it or the sun's UV rays to degrade it. I am a little concerned about the operating life, being left on 24/7. So far so good. I have had it operating for a month now and I am really pleased that it is so quiet. How it works: The light stay on continually and attracts flying insects day and night! When the insects get close, the fan underneath the light pulls them through the grate and traps them in the basket below. I have seen all different sizes of insects in the trap. Problems: I have only had one problem with the trap. I came out one day last week and the light was on but the fan was not turning. I unplugged the cord and found that a rather large June Bug was caught between the fan and the grate below it. These tough little bugs seem like they are made of a hard plastic and and this one was too big to make it trough the grate and was wedged in there, stopping the fan blade. I was think that perhaps this could have burned up the electric fan motor but after removing the bug and plugging it back in, it worked just fine. Apparently they anticipated this happening in the motor design. Nice job Dyna Trap! Operation: I empty the trap about twice a week and estimate that there is about one full cup of bugs inside. Some of the bugs that were apparently caught recently were still alive in the basket so I keep a can of bug killer close by and spray the bugs after I dump them out. (No since letting them take off and bother us again.) I probably should empty it more often because you can detect a slight odor from the dead bugs if you leave them in there too long. (Just a suggestion) Although I did not notice the smell from the patio because the fan blowing over them disperses the smell. Just the same, you may want to empty it more often. I am please with the quiet operation and clearly effective way it works, and have noticed a REAL difference sitting outside!. My backyard is about 1/2 acre and I still occasionally notice a fly by, but I'm not bothered like before. Even when I go out at night with a flashlight, I am not attacked by swarms of bugs. It has made a difference that is noticeable!
