HOW THE DYNATRAP
®
INSECT TRAP WORKS
Flying insects are attracted to the unit by UV light and CO2
that is generated by the photo-catalysis between the UV-LIGHT
LED lamp and special TiO2 coating. The fan then pulls the
insects into the screened base, trapping them until they
dehydrate and die. The base can be removed, allowing the
contents to be periodically emptied into the trash.
IMPORTANT: READ CAREFULLY
