| Where can I use the wasp trap? |
The NATURAL CONTROL wasp trap is an outdoor trap suitable for yards, deck, patio, porch, barn, shed, garbage and recycle areas. Hang traps in trees or from stakes in calm sunny locations about 5-10m from the area you wish to protect. If catches are low, shift trap location. Traps should be at least 5m away from a known wasp nest.

Clean and re-bait every 7-10 days in evenings to avoid being stung by active wasps. Immerse the entire trap in soapy warm water to kill any live insects and clean the trap for reuse.

Queen wasps emerge from hibernation during the first warm days of spring to look for nest sites. When you place our traps outside at that time, you can capture these queens and reduce the likelihood that a wasp nest will be established on or near your property.
