Questions & Answers
Is this trap harmful to beneficial and desirable insects like fireflies?
The attractants won't attract honey bees, but there is a rare chance that bees are drawn to the trap as a potential water source. Again, this rarely happens, but is more frequent when it is hottest around late July/August. We recommend hanging the trap in an area where there isn't honey bee activity.
What time of year would be best for starting my traps
We recommend setting your traps when daily high temperatures reach at least 55F for 3-5 days in a row. Setting your traps when temperatures are starting to stay consistently warm can increase your chances of catching queen, which can prevent nests from being established near your property.
Does this work for paper wasps? I've had the trap up since early morning and 7 hours later, not a single wasp in it, and they don't even go near it. There are 5 or 6 wasps at a time on my deck but no interest in the trap.
Our WHY Trap works on targeting wasps. If you're WHY Trap isn't catching anything, there could be a couple of reasons. Please contact us at Info@rescue.com; we will do everything possible to help.
Return it to yout local HD store for a refund. Mike
Will this trap work on black wasps?

The trap is working but there are none in the top where the liquid is. Why is that?
That is odd most of my wasp I caught were in the top container the bottom one only had a few
Does this work on flies?? Accidentally got it by mistake... Wanted fly trap!
No, it will not work for flies
No, the WHY Trap will not work on targeting flies.
Will this work on yellow legged wasps ?
No, our WHY Trap will not work on this type of insect.
Can’t remember what the clear vial that attached to top cone in my wasp trap, is for
The clear vial is one of the three components to the WHY Trap. The top chamber is baited with two lures -- one of which is a solid contained in a vial, and the other a liquid mixed with water. The bottom chamber is baited with a liquid lure poured onto a cotton pad. Wasps, hornets and yellowjackets have two ways to enter: either through the top cap, or through the holes in the bottom cap.
