I have a wasp problem and I live in south central Louisiana. Will this product work to solve my problem. I'm trying to avoid using sprays.

Based on my experience, These traps will not solve your problem. Placed near an active next, they have failed to catch a single Yellow Jacket after a full week

This trap will solve your yellowjacket problem. Yellowjackets would be the yellow and black stinging insects that come around for your food and drink while outside. However, it's not designed to catch the wasps that make open-comb nests under eaves that look like upside-down umbrellas. If those wasps are what you're after, you want the WHY Trap for wasps, hornets and yellowjackets or the TrapStik for Wasps (returning to the market this winter).
