Simply hang the wasp repeller outdoors in gardens, under parasols, on a tree or eaves, from early spring for maximum repellent effect. 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!

Bear in mind that pest controllers use insecticide to kill wasps, which could harm other wildlife in your garden, and can remain in the soil for many months after it has been applied. This is unnecessary – by leaving an unlidded jar of jam out the wasps will happily munch on the jam and not pester you.

However, we’re not the only ones seeking refuge from the cold—winter pests are also on the lookout for cosy places to escape the chill. Providing high performance cutting with a clean finish, this grass trimmer from Bosch has an easy edging function which enables quick changes from trimming to edging. Leading entomologists have endorsed the methodology behind Waspinator, and a field test was undertaken by Snell Scientifics (a leading entomological test house) which proved its effectiveness under stringent test conditions and with the use of lures made of meat, fruit, and other foodstuffs highly attractive to wasps.

You should wear protective clothing, including long sleeves and gloves, as well as a beekeeper suit or other protective gear. Each imitation nest is effective over a 10 meter radius, discouraging wasps from entering this area.

Without them we'd have to use much more pesticide to combat swarms of crop-eating pests," Matthew Robertson from the Zoological Society of London told The Mirror. Waspinator is an utterly effective natural wasp deterrent which will eradicate wasps from the garden areas used by humans but which leaves them free to do their work of pollinating flowers and killing aphids elsewhere. Wasps are attracted to light, so if you're sitting outside after hours keep those lights turned off. You can use a pesticide spray or powder, spray it with a garden hose, or you can hire a removal specialist.

So I’m glad many people had the same luck than me; I’m sad some had issues, and I know that, one year or another… I will have a nest. Wasps are very territorial insects and they usually tend to build their nests within 200 feet of another nest - therefore hanging this Paper Decoy Wasp Nest will effectively deter wasps. With a longer handle to ease back strain, this stainless digging spade has been created for all digging jobs. The exceptions are the gynes, the queen wasps, who hibernate until early spring, when they emerge and begin creating their very own nest to rule.But meanwhile, my own experience (which has no scientific value when considered out or my place) tells me a few dollars were way better invested in 2 fake tissue nests than exterminators and insecticides.
