Hornet Trap

I was surprised I needed instructions, but both my traps arrived unsealed at the bottom. Thanks to helpful reviews I know what to do! It would be good if the traps arrived in working order, well done to resourceful beekeepers!

This hornet trap could be great, and is once you have glued the 2 halves together properly. The problem is that the join between the 2 halves is vertical and it appears that the parts are simply pressed together. If you put a liquid lure in the trap it leaks out through the join. Once you have properly sealed the join it works fine.

Bought two of these and put some raspberry jam mixed with red wine in them before hanging them not far from the hives. Very surprised and seriously impressed at the number of wasps they trapped. Wasp activity around the hive entrances has reduced markedly since putting them out..

Unfortunately one of the two traps although it looked in one piece leaked from the seem of the plastic therefore of no use but the other one I ordered was working well and certainly caught plenty of wasps

Bought two of these and boy did they do what their supposed to do.
