What it catchesThe RESCUE!® Disposable Yellowjacket Trap catches all major species of yellowjackets common to North America.
The trap consists of a two-layer durable plastic bag with a scientifically designed molded plastic entry structure that prevents escape. A powerful water-soluble attractant is included; you simply add water to the trap and hang it outside. Yellowjackets are lured by the attractant scent and fly into the bag through the yellow entry structure. Once the trap is full, the top cap closes shut and the entire trap can be placed in the garbage.
Once inside the trap, the yellowjackets drown in the water.
The RESCUE!® Disposable Yellowjacket Trap is ideal for picnics, camping, or just around your yard. The trap should be hung in a tree or a bush, at least 20 feet away from your activity area.
The RESCUE!® Disposable Yellowjacket Trap is particularly effective in late summer and early fall because it appeals to the yellowjackets' need for moisture during that time.
"Our school has an outdoor lunch area and the RESCUE!® Disposable Yellowjacket Traps have made an incredible difference in our students' lives. Before the traps, many of the students had to eat their lunches indoors... now they can enjoy eating and playing outdoors again..."
