3 Pack Wasp Nest Decoy - Eco Friendly Hanging Wasp Repellent

Product Information

If we didn't have wasps visiting our gardens there would be huge numbers of insect pests to deal with.

The queen is responsible for laying eggs and the workers are responsible for nest maintenance, defense, and getting food. It works as a wasp deterrent for all species of social wasp, which are by far and away the most commonly found wasps in the UK and the whole Northern Hemisphere. A wasp trap needs cleaning out of dead and dying wasps and needs to be replenished with chemicals or poisons. Most wasps’ nests die off naturally but the later in the year a nest survives the greater the chance that it will reach maturity.Since worker wasps are looking for food, it’s best to limit their food sources in the areas you hang out.

They prefer to nest in the ground so hanging anything from your trees is not going to affect ground nesting species in the slightest. If you leave it up, wasps have memory and after a while, they’ll know it’s there and won’t even come in the first place.When you kill or threaten a wasp, it releases pheromones that other wasps will respond to, and these wasps could then attack and sting you. Simply hang the wasp repeller outdoors in gardens, under parasols, on a tree or eaves, from early spring for maximum repellent effect. There are many recent studies alarmed at the decline in the bee population and the catastrophic effect this could have on our lives – almost the entire food supply chain is reliant on pollination by bees at source, even meat and dairy which is fed by bee-pollinated food. Simply hang in your garden, on a tree or under the eaves of your house or another sheltered location. Whilst not an insect repellent, Waspinator allows wasps to carry on their job as natural pest controllers in the periphery of your garden.

Places like fruit trees, bird boxes, sheds, or inside walls, are all places where nests are commonly found. We have independent scientific field test results that Waspinator is a highly effective wasp repellent outdoors, and we have anecdotal evidence that it deters wasps nesting in houses and outbuildings as long as there is no real nest or hibernating Queen present.

New queen awakens from her overwintering beauty sleep in spring and finds a new place to make a nest. This was super cute and since I have put it up I haven’t seen a single wasp around my yard and I love it! The leather hooks make it easy to hang up in a shed, while the trowel has been marked in centimetres and inches to make planting easier than ever. Worker wasps tend to raise the eggs the queen lays, defend the nest against threats, collect food, and attend to the queen. If you're quietly going about your business having a late summer barbecue and you're stung by a wasp, it could be drunk on fermented fruit.

This dummy wasp nest offers an environmentally friendly and animal-friendly way to prevent other wasps from building nests. Wasps are very territorial and will aggressively defend their nest against wasps from another colony.Move outdoor furniture away from where it will be removed, as well as any outdoor plants or trees in the area where it will be removed, so they don’t get damaged during this time period and/or become infested with pesticides used to kill these pests if they are not properly applied by professionals who are trained properly in this field of work. When you kill a wasp it emits a pheromone panic signal which will attract other wasps to see what the problem is – kill a wasp and five more will come to its funeral!
