Itch, itch, scratch, scratch.

Welcome to my life.

Sorry, that sounds bad, no, I don’t have some kind of infectious disease. I have mosquito bites! Since I travel so much, I literally have them year round, and they really affect my life. Just this last week I got them on my legs, arms, neck… and my FACE!! That was it, this was the final straw. My face? Uncool mosquitos, uncool!

I started looking into products to get rid of mosquitos and other bugs, and found a company, Dynamic Solutions Worldwide that have a number of products to rid your home of bugs.

About Dynamic Solutions

Launched in 2006, the company introduced a fully original insect trap, the DT1000. This innovative product was designed to provide an alternative to expensive propane traps. Now in 2012, they have more than doubled the Dynatrap® line, with many versatile indoor and outdoor models, wall-mountable and standing traps, as well as developed the unique Dynazap®, an extendable racket zapper with an articulating head that can reach over three feet. Dynamic Solutions Worldwide, LLC Dynatrap® brand continues to bring to market new and innovative ways to keep your yard and home insect free.

About DynaZap

The Dynazap is fully extendable bug swatter… with power! It extends to over 3 feet in length, and has a telescopic head that bends for easy access to hard-to-reach areas (walls, ceilings). It has a power switch that only works when the trigger button is on, and uses two AA batteries (included) to zap bugs.

Dynazap® Extendable Insect Racket Zapper kills hard-to-reach mosquitos, wasps, flies, hornets, yellow jackets and other annoying flying insects on contact.

My Thoughts

At first, I thought the product was going to be a little gimmicky. I mean, right? But, I had to try something, bugs were not leaving me alone! And they were harassing me in my own home! (I guess they have more chances to get indoors since we are in and out of our home so much in the summer; barbequing, visiting with the neighbors, yard work, etc.)

Anyway, I got right to testing this innovative product out. I inserted the batteries (included) and let the swatting begin! It is very easy to use, and safe since there is a safety switch and it won’t zap unless you press the button at the same time. I actually found it quite fun and entertaining to test this, walking around the house swatting. It works on first contact!

If I was you, I might also be wondering if it kills the crawling insects on contact too. In fact it does. I killed a spider with it too. Best part? You don’t actually swat with it, you just zap it, so there is no messy spider splatter or smears left to clean!

I found the DynaZap to be a simple solution to kill bugs one by one in our home. And now that I’ve tested this product,  I’ve got my eye on the other DynaTrap products, like the models that actually attract bugs to them with the fans, lights and UV rays of the product. These would be great for a dinner party outside or a picnic to capture all of the flying insects like mosquitoes, wasps, biting flies, and moths – and keep them away from guests or food!
