I think the best place is in the manufacturer's warehouse. I used it for a year and didn't trap any Mosquitos. Just a few moths.

I feel it is best to place it away from the house. You do not want bugs being drawn to the entrances of your residence. I had a problem with one of my Dynatraps, called the company and they refused to repair it. It is a "throw away" product. I will not purchase another one of their products. Worked well when it worked, but very short life. I would not recommend a person purchase this brand.

These bait stations are designed to be placed on flat surfaces. While stakes are included to help secure them in grassy areas, they can also be placed on concrete or similar surfaces.

It is great to spread around the outside of the house to keep insects and animals away from the house.

I would recommend 3 separate traps if they are far apart protecting their eggs. A good tennis racket style electronic bug zapper works wonders too. Although you have to swat them, then step on them.

Yes, I had mine in a large raised garden bed, however, do keep in mind that the trap should be covered and not exposed to water. Good luck!

Try hanging it in a slightly different place, fifty feet or so away if you can. I have had mine hanging in different locations along the length of a fence between my house and a horse, ahem, "rescue" operation that never cleans the tiny pasture. The effectiveness of the traps has varied widely by location along the fence. Once I found the hot spots, that's where they have stayed.

Depends on the number of rooms you have. We have a 2-story, 2-bedroom home and bought 3 traps- one for each bedroom and then one on the main floor. Basically any room where your pets spend most of their time should have one trap. If it's a large open room, two traps in two different spots in the room might be best. Hope it works out!

Put away from house and put fly traps and attractants on zapper and or near zapper.

The trap works perfectly as designed. If your dealing with a beginner learning to shoot a twenty two pistol or rifle, 7 yards would be good. A more experienced shooter, depending on skill level, might place it 25-50 yards away.

We use ours outside under a 5' eave overhang along with the other type as described in my review. The do not get rained on or wet if that is your question. The combination is quite effective at getting rid of the bats and their droppings off our decks. We do however take them in each winter. Hope this helps.

Sadly I would say no. This trap with VERY effective has 2 draw backs: 1. Does not work next to a house or something solid like a wall due to the plate design. 2. You need an active run to get the kill... Just wait, where there are mole mounds, runs will follow. I recommend this amazing trap to anyone.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. For animal release I just place the trap on the ground pointed to either side and open the door. The animal usually bolts out an away in one second. Proven method for 82 captures.

You can do either. We sometimes hook it to our stake in the yard. Other times we unhook it and wrap it around the pergola post on our deck when we are in that part of the yard.

Can go as close to house as you want. Not sure about anchoring cause it would blow away if not secured here

I believe the instruction says about 25 feet away from where you are sitting or entertaining.I place mine about that far from my deck and have pretty good results. From the north Georgia Mts......
