Ratings & Reviews for RESCUE! WHY Wasp, Hornet Yellowjacket Liquid Refill Insect Trap
Ratings may include incentivized customer reviews.
What Customers Are Saying
Customers are sharply divided on this wasp trap's effectiveness. Many report dramatic success, capturing hundreds of wasps within days and noticing significant pest reduction around homes. However, an equally large group describes complete failure, with traps catching nothing despite visible wasp activity. Common issues include attractant vials that are unusable or lose potency quickly, yellowjackets escaping from the bottom chamber, and unintended capture of bees or ants. Some note placement and height affect performance. Overall, results vary dramatically by location and wasp species, leaving reviewers split between calling it transformative and labeling it a waste of money.

Doesn't work at all
Would Not RecommendI got this trap at Ace Hardware (along with several other yellow jacket traps) and I followed the instructions to a T. I moved it a few different times and absolutely zero wasps/bees/hornets in the trap. The only thing in there is a spider. I actually had to hire a pest control company to spray around my house due to how many wasps and yellow jackets we have. I also purchased the yellow jacket traps (disposable and reusable +refills) and same result. I purchased the yellow jacket traps last year...
