What Customers Are Saying

Customers overwhelmingly praise these yellowjacket traps for exceptional effectiveness, with many reporting hundreds of captures within days. Reviewers consistently highlight the effortless setup—simply adding water and hanging—and appreciate the disposable convenience without handling dead insects. The minimal odor compared to alternatives makes them ideal for patios and camping. However, some customers report complete failure with no catches, and a few experienced physical defects or found larger wasps couldn't enter the cone opening. Despite these isolated issues, most consider them highly effective and worthwhile for outdoor pest control.

Worst instructions EVER!!!!

Would Not Recommend

You guys couldn’t write instructions on how to open a paper bag instructions on this unit show nothing about how it actually works or as assembled I had to look at your website to see that the center section actually pushes up through the hole in the top. otherwise there’s nothing that explains it, that is a total fail what is the use of having a disposable item that ends up getting destroyed before it’s even used you should take your people that write the instructions and fire them

I've never caught a yellow jacket

I am on my fourth bag. I have never caught a yellow jacket. I've caught Beatles and a fly here and there. Very disappointed in this product. The WHY yellow jacket traps are much better

Yellowjacket trap

Would Not Recommend

My yard has tons of yellowjackets and not 1 single yelowjacket has gone into either of the traps. The fly catcher works great.

Incredible - they work great!

Would Recommend

We have a huge problem with yellow jackets (and paper wasps) every summer at our house in Oregon. The moment we put these out, we literally see swarms within 30 minutes. It really helps cut down on the population. We catch so many we have to put out new ones because they fill up. So easy to prepare - just add water. We buy them every summer! Will probably try the wasp stick trap this year as well for the paper wasps. This product is a must buy!

Quality Control is "0"

Would Not Recommend

Just bought this at the local box store, hd. Followed the instructions opened the top, made a nice hook for it, poured in the powder, followed by the water, and watched the bag pee dry in 10 minutes. Corner of package wasn't sealed, so I now probably have a dead spot in my yard, and a expensive puddle. Oh and hd wouldn't take it back since it was now wet.

Great for camping

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This yellowjacket trap is a life saver whenever we go camping because they always swarm when I am cooking and it is a pain to fight them off. I put a string in it and hung it in a nearby tree and all the yellowjackets swarmed it and trapped in it over minutes.

Dont' waste your money

Would Not Recommend

After a week, not one yellow jacket has gone inside. They fly around it, land on top of it, and one even started to go down the shoot but came back out. Very disappointed!!

Highly disappointed

Would Not Recommend

Even though the title of this review is for "Western" I would like to reflect on the "Eastern" version. I purchased this trap a week ago, placed it in numerous areas around my property and not one yellowjacket. Directions were performed exactly. Unfortunately there are still many yellowjackets swarming and none of them prefer your trap. I am greatly disappointed in your products usefullness and will not purchase again.

This is a must have!

Would Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It cannot get any more easier than this. Just fill up the trap with regular water till the indicated level, attach a string and hang it from a tree at least 20 feet away from any doors and just watch. Within 2 hours of putting up this trap, we had at least 15 yellowjackets trapped. Really impressed. It does not impact bees. My backyard is free of yellowjackets

Waste of Money

Would Not Recommend

Would give zero stars. Based on the great reviews, we purchased two traps - one for the front of the house and one for the back. Placed them approx 10 feet from the yellow jacket nests, 3 days later - nothing. Moved one trap to within 3 feet of a nest, 1 week later, still nothing. Yellow jackets buzz on by, I think I heard them laughing.
