Ratings & Reviews for RESCUE! WHY Wasp, Hornet Yellowjacket Outdoor Liquid Refill Insect Trap

WHY I will not buy WHY

Product is worthless, we have wasps and hornets and it does nothing to catch them. It catches nothing but small flea-size flies and very small flying bugs.

Wasp’s are smart

I bought this May first because the wasp’s were very active, well captured at least 7 in one day! I also watched as they one by one went down the tube and flew away lol.

WHY wasps & hornets Attractant Kit

One of the most depressing WASTES OF MONEY I think I've seen. Two weeks and NO Wasps or Hornets... have some ants, flies, a couple spiders, and even a couple yellow jackets... but not one wasp or hornet (and I have a bunch of them - enough I purchased 4 traps). Not sure WHY THESE DO NOT WORK, but they sure don't do anything on the RED WASPS, or those yellow & red stingers!

Didn't work

Glad I spent 13 dollars on this for it to catch absolutely nothing. Followed the directions step by step, nothing. The wasps will fly around it, but didn't catch a single one. Waste of money.

Wasp sure figured out how to get out

Had a wasp in the top, it found a way out. Followed directions......and for as many wasps as we have, we put up 3, yeah, 1 wasp and apparently it's smarter than the trap.

RESCUE! WHY Yellowjacket, Wasp and Hornet Liquid

This is our 2nd purchase of the refill. The product is junk, ineffective! Don't waste your money!

Captures Yellowjackets by the 100

I had yellow jackets and bees swarming around the house for several days in late fall after using the fireplace the first time. (I believe I smoked out a nest perhaps in the upper chimney pipe.) I used the WHY trap and caught about 30 yellow jackets on day 1. By the end of 2 weeks, I had caught over 100 yellow jackets and several bees. I was not concerned about capturing bees, but it did do that in addition to the yellow jackets. It caught mainly yellow jackets in the upper liquid chamber, an...

Works Great!

Bought it this fall because we were having trouble with yellow jackets every fall. Put it out at the beginning of October and caught over 200 in 3 days.

Easy to fill and assemble

Have been put out for three days, forty to fifty bees constantly flying around the unit. But not one yellow jacket has entered. Disappointed as bees are interfering with humming bird feeders near by (20 feet)

Stopped the Marauders!

I am a hobby beekeeper and recently had a hive devoured by wasps within a day. They were protein hungry and very aggressive. Bought this trap and caught 50 plus in a day. May have saved my remaining hives as my honeybees couldn’t stop them. My favorite features: the meat spikes inside. I enjoyed watching these creatures carry around their last meal of roasted chicken before their departure. Win and recommend.

Disappointed

My yard was so full of wasps it looked like the grass was moving. Bought 3 traps plus refills. In 4 weeks, they caught exactly 12 wasps in the bottom and ZERO in the tops. I'm still flooded with wasps and out 77 dollars.

Bad, save your money

I bought this last month and not one wasp looked at it. Wasted $16.95.

Works like crazy every time we use

Have had these traps for more than 3 yrs. still sturdy and work. Need new attractant of course. Last nite we put up and they swarmed the trap within minutes and had more than 20+ within the hour. This morning even more. Just put up another. Majority like the bottom entrance. Only get 1-2 in the top. We will keep using. Awesome.

Have used these for years

We have used these traps for years. They always did great, we would always be shocked at the number of wasps it caught. We have never had a problem with birds getting caught. We got some this year and the design was different. It is not to be hung horizontally instead of vertically. We thought it was weird but went about our business. We have had to rescue two birds in a month because being horizontal birds want to sit on it and get stuck. Won’t buy another one.

FOR “YELLOW JACKETS”!!!

WE reuse our Rescue Yellow Jacket traps every year. Towards the end of summer we clean them out from previous year and put new attractent in them. They work great!! This product is not for Wasps, Hornets or Mud Dobbers. If you read the bad reviews, people say the yellow jacket trap did not attract tge above mentioned insects. Probably because there is a seperste Trap for Wasps, Hornets ect. Also another trap for flys. We have each of these and each one works very well for each speceise.

Helped keep wasps away at school

Put two under a newly-built pavilion on a HS band’s practice field. It was a help - caught a bunch and seemed to discourage them from locating there.

Wasp completely ignored this trap

Trap has been up for 5 days. 3 small yellow jackets in bottom trap. Hanging by the garage where wasp enter through a small crack. Multiple wasp just fly right by like it isn't even there.

Waste of money

I bought this a week or two ago and believed the information on the cardboard wrapper that an attractant was included. The back of the wrapper said there were complete instructions inside. When I removed the wrapper this morning, there were no instructions and no attractant. I'm left with an empty plastic container that isn't going to trap anything--wasps, hornets or yellow jackets.

A dozen yellow jackets the first day

This has worked well for me. I bought it to trap some of the bees that found a crack in my house and created a nest in my wall, have an exterminator coming out to treat the nest and kill them all. But I figured I'd try this and have it about 30 feet away from my house and it caught/killed about a dozen the first day and at least 25 total during the 3 days it has been up. I tried to get it closer to the nest, but they were being too aggressive so I put it in one of their flying paths. Even thou...
