DynaZap DZ30300SR 1.5 Acre Bug Zapper Insect Trap

Absolutely satisfied with this bug zapper! It does what it says, works day and night, rain or shine, never once had any issue setting up or running it. Stay killing flying insects all-nighter and even in the day. To clean I mostly just hit it really hard with the palms of my hands on both sides and 70% of the burnt stuck on bugs fall off. Then I think the heat and sun cook what’s left and it turns to dust and falls off the next time I knock it clean. I have taken the bottom off per the Instructions and tried cleaning the cages from the inside with various bottle brushes but I don’t think the built up bugs and bits really affect the function. I’ve had it running nonstop now at least a month or more and would buy it again even if this one breaks, for $50-$60 for a summer season of less mosquitoes and flying insects at night when cooking out and gathering its well worth it!Update: as of today 9/16 still going strong stay covered in moths and bugs and keeps killing. Much less mosquito activity also, although when it rains hard I unplug it and get lazy and don’t power it back on for a day or so and those mosquitoes come back with a vengeance with the rain and lack of zaps. But after a night back on few if any remain. Otherwise I keep it on all the time!

Brought two that tell you some

The first unit worked great for about five minutes, then it wouldn't zap anymore even though the light was still on. Packaged it up to send back, and ordered a replacement. The second unit also worked great and passed the five-minute mark, so I went inside. I came back out an hour later and the zapping function had quit, just as before. Now I have both defective units boxed up to go back. I have a lot of bugs this season, so I'm guessing that in each case the cheap electronics that produce the high voltage "zapper" were not up to the task of zapping so many bugs and just burned out. If you have lots of bugs stay away from DynaZap and look for something more heavy duty.

It actually works!!!! Very effective!Must purchase if you are looking for a real zapper .

So far so great. We’ve had this for just about a week and almost immediately noticed a decline in the mosquito population. While we were swarmed when we went outside, we now see only the occasional mosquito to the tune of the zap and sizzle in the background. It doesn’t seem like it’ll be all that easy to clean the bottom but it zaps mostly the smaller bugs and they fall through. I’ve added a mosquito attractant to help the little guys to make the right choice and go into the light. We have had a Dynatrap sucking version for a couple of years and really like it too. The electric version seems like it’s going to fill the gap on the bugs that the sucking version misses.

I purchased two of these since I live in a swamp. Everyday I need to use a can of compressed air to clean them out due to the amount of dead bugs on this. The grating keeps the larger moths from getting zapped but this is also a good thing. The moths have a habit of smoking a bit. The bottom grate is a bit narrow so things do get caught and are hard to clean. All in all no product will ever be perfect but this does very well for what it's worth. One issue is the electrical cord is small so unless your putting it right by an outlet you'll need an extension cord.Pros:Does what it needs toSuper bright to attract insectsCons:Electrical cord is small(12 inches) so extension cord is needed.Grate at bottom is small openings

Used leaf blower to clean - easyWorked like a champ for 18 months zapping everything on my deck and patio.Some of the best money I have ever spent.

Really hardly have to clean it at all! The design is so good that most insects just fall out instead of sticking to the grill. Much higher quality build than others as well. Just wish it had a longer cord as I've got to use an extension in order to put it anywhere.
