They don't stand a chance

Would Recommend

I've baited the trap this refill was made to use in 2 times. Got different results. There are 2 chambers with attractant in each. The bottom was most effective the first time and top was most effective the 2nd time. Got many more yellow jackets in the top chamber in early fall.

TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY

Would Not Recommend

5 WEEKS and not 1 wasp or bee of any kind. After 3 weeks with nothing I added sugar water and juice to what was already in there after reading a bunch of reviews online. So now it's 2 weeks with the new and improved liquid and still nothing,but the wasps are still everywhere driving me crazy! Biggest waste of $14 EVER

Wow! Two hours in and check out all the wasps...

Would Recommend

Hung this trap because wasps were appearing close to my beehive. Was a bit concerned that it might trap bees as well as wasps. Have been checking periodically for the past two hours and only wasps are trapped and am pleasantly surprised at how many have been trapped! I bought another one of these traps a few weeks ago to trap wasps in another area of my property and was pleased at the results so thought I'd give it a try on another area.

Big disappointment

Would Not Recommend

This trap has not caught a single red wasp, yellow jacket, dirt dauber, and believe me we have plenty of all three, so we are deeply disappointed in this product.

Great

Would Recommend

I can't say enough good things about this product. It just works! I empty clean and refill every 2 weeks and have done since May. This is an average 2 week catch. Colin

Wasps hoarding the hummingbird feeders

Would Recommend

We had so many wasps taking over the hummingbird feeders, the hummers left. I put up this trap and it was filled in about 3 days. After dumping it, it filled again—both chambers this time. Hummers came back now that they can feed without wasps chasing them away. Need to get a refill of the attractants.

Doesn't work AT ALL

Would Not Recommend

The yellow jackets could care less. This trap was a complete waste of money. Yes, I followed all directions. They aren't remotely interested.

Works very well

Would Recommend

I’ve been using these traps for years. Baiting them is admittedly very fiddly and cleaning them every 2-3 weeks is a chore but boy they do work. I’ve enclosed a picture as I was surprised by the negative reviews. I don’t normally take the time to write reviews frankly but the low ratings just aren’t fair. I have 4 of these by the pool and patio and capture 50 or more in every reset of the trap. If you follow the instructions they do work! Don’t hang them too high or low and place them away fr...

Very Effective

Would Recommend

Very effective, especially near nests. See the picture. A closer look will show wasp and hornets, including bald faced hornets

Expensive for what you get - doesn't last

Would Not Recommend

Packaging is in small plastic sleeves - prone to spillage and wastage.; C'mon - do better - it's like this was designed to be wasted. I have several traps. The first day - lots of wasps are attracted. Day 2 - not so much. Day 3 - it's a tree ornament. Rescue: this stuff is too expensive for the amount you receive and how long it lasts. Package it better (in an eye dropper) and give more - so that is actually lasts the advertised amount of time !

Totally works

Would Recommend

Wasn't sure at first but by the 2nd day it was attracting them. Today is our first 2 week change out. Very impressed.

INCREDIBLE!!!

Would Recommend

We noticed an uptick of yellow jackets/wasps in our front porch area. My wife picked one of these up from our local hardware store and I put it up that night. Within 24 hours, we noticed a HUGE difference in the population of our annoying little friends. We bought 2 more and can't believe how effective they are!

Works like a champ. Die evil flying demons

Works great. Have refilled it twice this summer and i think i have caught over 60 various demons of flight. The initial catch had about twice as many as the picture attached. I have two teaps spaced about 30 feet apart. The

caught zero by the wasp nest

Would Not Recommend

Was hopeful this would catch at least a few of the paper wasps, yellowjackets & mud daubbers making homes on (& getting in) our home. It did absolutely nothing. Moved it to two locations & got zero results. Will try our own DIY mixture in the "trap" rather than buying useless chemicals again. But now we know.

Ineffective

Would Not Recommend

I was highly infested with yellowjackets but only captured four in several days. I ended up calling an exterminator.

Amazing!!

Would Recommend

Not sure what all I’ve caught in my WHY trap and I should have taken a picture before I poured them into this bag. There are some HUGE wasps, yellow jackets, and maybe some hornets in here. This is about three weeks worth! This thing WORKS!!!
