How Does Dynatrap Work?

DynaTrap draws in mosquitos, thanks to a combination of carbon dioxide and warmth. Once caught in the trap, mosquitos can't escape.


A Light for Warmth


A fluorescent bulb, an ultra-violet one, works to bring mosquitos to the trap. There's a word that explains why phototaxis, a moving creature's movement to or from light. Mosquitos aren't entirely attracted to the light, but they may respond to the light with confusion. Mosquitos want to find prey, and they may navigate around a light in their search. A trap providing ultra-violet light may fool and catch them.
Light needs an assist, though.


The CO2 Trap

Mosquitos appreciate the presence of carbon dioxide because it sends them an important notice. Changes in carbon dioxide, the colorless gas humans exhale when they breathe out. If there's carbon dioxide close by, there might be a host. Or, there might be a trap. Dynatrap provides a source of carbon dioxide that may fool mosquitos into entering a final resting place.


A Special Kind of CO2

Unlike other traps, DynaTrap does not use propane to generate CO2. A titanium dioxide (TiO2) coated funnel creates the CO2 that mosquitos crave. The funnel connects to a fan that creates a vacuum-like suction that traps the mosquitos. So, the non-propane CO2 brings the mosquitos closer to the trap and pulls them in. The mosquitos aren't likely to escape the retaining cage.


And the homeowners relying on DynaTrap won't worry about replacing propane source, either. Besides taking time away from a busy day to replace the propane, the owner need not spend money on more tanks. Convenience and cost savings are two added positives to the DynaTrap.


A Vast Insect Solution

Mosquitos might be the top concern of many people purchasing DynaTrap, and those customers may appreciate the trap's ability to target other flying pests. Moths, wasps, and other creatures may find themselves lured into the trap.

What About The Sound?



Unlike electric "bug zappers," DynaTrap doesn't make annoying sounds or noises. Hanging the trap won't likely lead to disturbances that annoy homeowners throughout the night.
And what about the fan? The vacuum fan works without making excessive noise. The spinning occurs with a mild humming, one that might not deliver any concerns or distraction.

The Indoor and Outdoor Mosquito Trap

Unlike some other types of traps, you could place DynaTrap inside or outside the home. Remember, there are no poisons or propane components to the trap. Following all necessary recommended instructions may contribute to the safe use of the product.

Easy Installation

Installing the trap takes little effort. Hang it in a safe place and high enough from the ground, and then plug the unit into a 110-volt outlet and it should be good to go.


Once installed, DynaTrap goes to work to take steps to help keep a home free of flying pests and insects.
