Ratings & Reviews for RESCUE! Reusable yellow jacket trap Outdoor Pheromone scent Canister Insect Trap

Does not work

Purchased at local True Value Hardware store. Bought the ten week packet. Put on a or were the yellow jackets stop all the time. Three weeks in and not a single one in the trap. Save your money.

These work. Get them out early in the year.

Have used these for years. They work. The secret is to get them out early after the first frost. Catch the queens and you won't have drone bees. Try to find the 10 week cartridges. Too much of a pain to refresh them every 2.

Best Yellow jacket Trap on the market.

I put a 10 Week Cartridge in the unit in late winter as the weather starts to warm to catch the queens when they start appearing from winter hibernation. About mid summer I add a 1in square of the juice catcher from a batch of chicken thighs (freeze first, then cut into squares) this will attract even more yellow Jackets as he sun warms the liner and the wasps come flying in.

Multiple uses!

Great product! Not only catches wasps but helped make Halloween more fun!

Didn't Work

I bought this and the W.H.Y. traps. I had high hopes that these would work as described. They haven't. Both traps have been up for two weeks according to the directions and have been a disappointment. The yellow jacket trap caught one. The W.H.Y. trap caught two. I intended to buy more attractant to refresh the traps, but now I won't. I have to find a different product that works.

Recommend and will buy again/refill

The product worked very well. I noticed the following day after setting up multiple yellow jackets were in the trap. A couple weeks later there are at least 20 dead in the trap. The other nice thing about this is you can reuse the trap.

Works well. But buy the 10wk cartridge refill too.

The trap is working pretty well. We bought it to deter the yellow jackets from the hummingbird feeder. We placed it about 30ft from the feeder. We didn't want to put it too close bc the first few days the scent trap is really potent, and we got a lot of YJs coming into the yard (more than usual). After 4wks we get about 5-6 a day. Yes, we still get YJs at the feeder but much fewer, and they have to pass the scent trap either way, so we're keeping the number down but not totally eradicating them...

awful I feel it was a waste of money, Not one bee

I bought 10 days ago and not 1 bee was trapped. Even tried a different location than directed.

Great idea

This definitely works!

Works!

Got tired of trying to eat outside and the wasps attacking our food. Finally was able to eat in peace.

My own yellow jacket graveyard!!

This works so well and I wish I had found it earlier. We have a few ares around the outside of our house that tend to be where yellowjackets try to nest every year. This trap has worked incredibly well!

trap didn't work

We have hummingbird feeders out which has attracted yellow jackets. Put this trap out and in 5 days has only 3 yellow jackets in it but now have more yellow jackets then before going on the bird feeder. keeping the hummingbirds away. product does not work for us..

what a relief, being able to eat outside without having wasps bothering you! Love it!!

2 in 4 days

I purchased this in August with great expectations after watching the videos. I hung it up as required placed all the stuff inside as required. I waited for three days. I finally got one yellow jacket in one container and then I waited another day after putting a whole pack of attractant in one container, and I got one more yellow jacket in the other. It’s been a week or two since then and I haven’t gotten one more yellow jacket. Am I doing something wrong?

Doesn't work on all wasps.

It took a few days, but I started collecting wasps in the trap. Helps keep the backyard wasp free.

bait is useless

I'm feeding about 18 feral cats in my backyard (I've had almost all of them spayed/neutered). Recently my yard (mainly cat food feeders) was swarmed with yellow jackets. I tried the disposible traps, they are only partly effective. I bought the reusable traps. NOTHING would feed in them. I added cat kibble to the bait station. The traps are now filling up. I don't know what the provided bait it except useless. I like the traps and will continue to use them; I will just provide my own...
