Frequently Asked Questions - DT1260-TUN Dynatrap

How does the Dynatrap DT1260-TUN work?

The Dynatrap DT1260-TUN uses a UV fluorescent bulb to attract insects, then a fan pulls them into a collection tray where they dehydrate and die. It also produces CO2 from a titanium dioxide coating to mimic human breath, enhancing attraction.

What is the coverage area of the DT1260-TUN?

The DT1260-TUN covers up to 1 acre (4,047 m²), making it suitable for large yards, gardens, or patios.

How do I clean the collection tray?

To clean the tray, unplug the trap, remove the tray by sliding it out, empty the debris, and rinse with water. Use a mild detergent if needed. Dry thoroughly before reinserting.

How often should I replace the UV bulb?

The UV bulb should be replaced every 3,000 hours of operation (approximately once per season) to maintain optimal insect attraction. Use Dynatrap replacement bulb model DT01.

Is the trap weatherproof?

The Dynatrap DT1260-TUN is weather-resistant but not fully waterproof. It can be used outdoors in rain but should not be submerged. For best results, place it under an eave or in a sheltered area.

Does the trap use any chemicals or pesticides?

No, the DT1260-TUN is chemical-free. It uses UV light, CO2, and a fan to capture insects without harmful substances, making it safe for use around children and pets.

Can I hang the trap or use it on the ground?

Yes, the DT1260-TUN can be hung using the provided hook or placed on the ground using the included ground stake. Choose a location 20-40 feet from where people gather.

What types of insects does the trap catch?

The trap is designed to attract and capture mosquitoes, gnats, flies, moths, and other flying insects. It is particularly effective against mosquitoes due to the UV and CO2 combination.

What is the power cord length?

The Dynatrap DT1260-TUN comes with a 6-foot (1.8 m) power cord, which may require an extension cord for remote outdoor placement.

How do I replace the UV bulb?

To replace the bulb, unplug the trap, remove the top cover, gently pull out the old bulb, and insert a new Dynatrap DT01 bulb. Do not touch the glass with bare hands to avoid reducing bulb life.

HOW THE DYNATRAP ^3 INSECT TRAP WORKS

Flying insects are attracted to the unit by the UV light and CO2 that is generated by the photo-catalysis between the UV lamps and the special TiO2 coating. The tin 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. The sea-through screen shows the insects trapped in the compartment, alerting you when the cage needs to be emptied.
