Title: Purchased 3 years ago - For inside the house! Anti- Mosquito, Moths No-See-Ums
Review: 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!

Title: Disappointing is putting it mildly.
Review: I bought this specifically because it advertises IN THE PRODUCT HEADLINE AND DESCRIPTION mosquito control up to a 1/4 acre! I am pretty sure it never killed even 1 mosquito! I live in midtown with a small backyard, definitely less than 1/4 acre. I even tried sitting right beneath where I have it hanging, still got eaten alive. I should have saved my money and stocked up the cute little mosquito repellent things that you can buy at most any store! Definitely would not buy another or recommend.

Title: Works better than expected
Review: This guy is smaller than it's big brother and perfect for 1/4 acre or less. I use is on my front patio. It's weatherproof and stays on 24/7. Just press the button every couple of weeks to release a PILE of dead bugs (I compost them.)Long, heavy duty electric cord is nice. Lightweight and easy to hang. The best feature besides it controls mosquitoes is it's sound level...it's so quiet, you don't even realize it's on! Coming from a sound sensitive person, that is huge.I loved the 1/2 acre one I bought for the back yard so much, I bought this little guy for the front patio. Now we're enjoying outside again. No zapping sounds or odors. Bulbs last 30,000 hours and are replaceable.

Title: This thing actually works
Review: I have other brands of "skeeter suckers" as I call them. The lights on the other ones are brighter and seem to catch more skeeters. The UV light on this one is dim in comparison. Not sure if this is normal. I will keep the thing but hold onto the box in case it fails. Lower the price $10 or more. Now The light bulb does not work. Need a replacement bulb. Ordered June 18th from Amazon. Please send a new bulb. Other than that, it works great.

Title: Catches lots of bugs not mosquitoes
Review: 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.

Review: Não faz o que alega. Moscas e mosquitos continuam bem vivos. Apanha muitas traças. Muito caro para o que é.

Review: Excelente producto llegó el día que habían predicho así que del envío no me puedo quejar, su funcionamiento es simple primero lo pones en un lugar alto con la cadena que ya traía el aparato y después únicamente se conecta elsu cable al enchufe de la luz y se usa de noche y atrapa a los mosquitos en una trampa y solo los atrae con luz no hace ruido.

Review: The claim that this unit produces carbon dioxide (and hence ATTRACTS mosquitoes) is highly dubious. True, the units traps stray mosquitoes that venture near it. But so do other similar products that cost one-fifth of the price. Forget one-fourth acre, the unit is NOT effective over an area of 30 square meters in ideal conditions (operating at least two hours in complete ambient darkness without human presence). It certainly does not 'attract' mosquitoes, hence the claim that it produces carbon dioxide is suspect. It only traps stray mosquitoes that are attracted to it by its light -- at four or five times the cost of similar products that are just as effective.
