Most [mosquito catchers and deterrents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bzigo-iris) try to get rid of the pests by confronting something that's objectionable to them, but the DynaTrap XL actually looks to attract the little bugs by releasing a gas that smells like a human's skin.

Featuring a design that releases [radiant heat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nitecore-nwl30) and an odorless carbon dioxide that will smell like the sweat of a person to a mosquito, the DynaTrap XL then zaps them dead once lured in to provide complete protection for up to an entire acre of area. Place the DynaTrap XL on a flat surface or hang it out of the way to enjoy mosquito-free evenings outdoors without having to worry about [harsh flames or chemicals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natural-insect-repellents).
