This is the first video that mention how to dispose of the bees! Freezer! Fantastic point!

I love how simple this is and how little cutting that needs to be done.

I’ve got the same sort of setup but I use a soldering iron for the holes - perfect 👌

Instead of tying off the string, when you put the cap on, it should hold it in place.

You can use a Tampax and just lay the string over the opening and screw on the top. It works much easier than tying a cotton ball.

Thanks for the video. Great info.

Who else cheered when he pulled out the spyderco? 😁😂👏

I make same trap. I hang a small 3 inch piece of hot dog. works great

Good job those yellow jackets don't read . . You did write 'caution' on the milk jug to warn them .

Works great, thanks for the info.

looks easy I'm making 2 this weekend,thanks

1:30 what if the wasps can read, bees can spell 😀

Cat food cheaper and works great

I made this trap and poured about 2 inches of old Apple juice in bottom. Just used juice and set the trap next to hive. Within a week the swarm was drowned.

i put a yellow jacket nest, with wasps in a reezer for 6 months. when they thawed out, they revived and got busy. freezing them doesn't work.

I didn’t see any bugs in the trap. Why not show a close up?

Thank you!

Wondering, how to you change it out and avoid getting stung if there's live yellow jacket's still inside the jug.

I realize you were only cutting a milk jug, but that was one very sharp knife!

I"m canadian, can I use a milk bag ?

Good idea

Well as long as someone has 20/20 they won't walk near that out side

That is an excellent Yellow Jacket Trap, will copy your instructions and rid my Patio of those pests, couldn't help but notice the dried out ground and parched grass, don't you guys get regular rainfall ?

I've tested alot of bait. They love Mango flavor Jarritos soda better than anything I've seen.

Just use soda and meat for bait

Nice knife! If you are BBQing, use a piece of meat you are eating. Just like you, the yellow jackets prefer seasoned cooked meat as apposed to a raw unseasoned meat or the sent that come with store bought traps. If given a choice, which would you rather eat?

Spyderco...nice.

what's the indgredients in the extractent?

try going around the outside of the nest with lime and seven dust useing 40lb bag of lb of seven dust mix it togather with 5 lb bag os seven dust take a plastic cup from fast food go around the outside of the nest really good when they get in it it burns their insides instantly gone

instead of attractant smear marmalade or jam in the bottle. wasps go mad for jam..do they call it jelly in us?

ummm the wasps weren't going in the trap, just flying around or am I missing something?

A small piece of watermelon tied to the string or juice from the melon to the cotton ball would work as well.

Can you fill the jug with apple juice and Dawn?

Mountain Dew works as an attractant but I pour it in the soapy water . . .

Does your shirt say Sequim? My grandparents used to live there.

I tried mellow yellow w bacon but it only caught flies and daddy long legs. Need to find some actual attractant.

tuna fish works great after a day or two

A small chunk of ham or chicken tied to the dental floss works just as good as the attractant and doesn’t cost anything if you already have it in your refrigerator. 🤷‍♀️

will yellow jacket traps work for wasps to

Bacon or other meat will draw them as well.

Patrick Star's Yellow Jactet Trap

I wonder if a slice of ham would attract them

A pot of boiling water down the hole also works ,

Beer works great for attractant

Why not find the nest(s) and get rid of the source? They will just keep reproducing until next season.

throw molten metal into the nest

The volume of liquid attractant in the tubes I bought from Home Depot was nearly invisible. I could see a small amount of oily moisture on the scissors I used to cut the tube, so I wiped that with the cotton ball. I could not see anything else come out of the tube. The video indicates it has a bad small, but I could not smell anything, so I think something was wrong with the tubes they sold me.

Just spray their nest down with Rid a bug wasp/hornet killer then inject Great Stuff into the holes. Done.

its good for rats snakes flys wont land on it and spiders to just make sure its not going to rain for three days if can

What if you have to cut grass or weedeat. And there is nest in ground

A case of over thinking a solution to a problem. All you need to do is wait till night when yellow jackets are in the next. Poor some gasoline down each hole, cover the hole with dirt and rocks. Gasoline fumes will kill the yellow jackets.

After getting stung four times the other day, I'm offering a thousand dollar reward for every yellow jacket you trap.

God bless iam alergic to things that bite sew

Nice spyderco!

I would do this -but afraid that I would kill off Honey Bees ... Are you seeing many in your trap?

i am not sure what you are trying to do you want kill the nest this way if you get 1000 new ones will hatch in a week or so if you know where the nest is i can tell you how to kill all at one time never attack a nest during the day go to it at night when all the wasps are in the nest pour 1/2 cup of gasin the hole no one will come out wait about ten min.s dig the whole nesy up place in small trash bag step on it to kill larve in the layers of the nest place in trash the end safe ps dont worry about gas in the soil when you dig it up you are removing that dirt i declared war about 40 yrs ago when my wife dug one up in flower bed about 12 stings

What's the name of this yellow jacket attractant you're talking about and where do you find it to buy it?

Nice knife had one or more sense 1991

Yellow jacket can read..

maybe set up your trap outside of the house so it don't wreak inside .

I've watched many videos about getting rid of yellow jackets. All these people go to all this trouble when all you have to do is wait until night and pour a tablespoon of gasoline in the hole and it's done.I don't understand you people.It's so simple.Why go to all that trouble?

Just find the nests, pour some gas down then, and strike a match! Boom! Dead!

Vg, we use bacon.

Try a red fake flower around the hole as a further attraction?

animals cant read, can this method be a danger to them?

Don't worry about your spelling, they can't read!

Does this work on bees also? I don't want to kill them lol

I heard the YJ love chicken meat

Chicken meat

F

I can't wait to try this. The ground bees are nasty this year. Just do me one favor. NEVER post a vid again of you cutting anything in the direction of your body. Just a heads up for ppl who shouldn't handle sharp object anyway. LOL

Those traps somtimes trap honey bees too. Use proper atractants

Thank you!
