Waspinator Wasp Nest Decoy - 2 Pack, Fake Wasp Nest for Outdoor Hanging, Yellow Jackets & Bee Repellent, Waterproof & Tear-Resistant Deterrent for Outdoor, Patio & Garden

Just put up this morning. Perfect. I buy new ones every spring, they work a treat. Wasps will fly into your garden and swiftly leave when they see what they think is another wasps nest.

I had a major wasp problem in my back garden (near my back doors on the house to be precise). There was no nest near me, but I think they were coming from a neighbouring house/garden and used my garden like a highway. So I put two of these fake nests up, and it did work! I think I saw 1 or 2 over a month or so, but that was much better than 1-2 every half hour for sure! My only issue is ease of use. I had to stuff mine with plastic recycling bags to try and recreate some form of shape, and the shape would not hold for long. Despite this, I do recommend this item if you are having wasp problems.

I know its not scientific but I've put these up the last 2 years and have has absolutely no issue with wasps bothering my bee hives. And local beekeepers to my area have had a terrible time.So I think they work!

This is rather a tough call to make. Essentially this is like proving a negative - you can't do it. Just because something has not happened does not mean it cannot.However, I did read up about the theory of how it works and there is some science about it, although perhaps stretched a little far by the manufacturers. The reason I bought this is because my house is surrounded by trees and every year I seem to get at least four or five wasp nests in my eves. Because of that inevitably I have a lot of wasps around the patio area which is a real pain sometimes. And of course literally once in a while.Whilst I deal with the wasp nests that end up in my house there are many more in the trees which firstly would be impossible to deal with and secondly despite wasps being a nuisance I do know they play a role in nature and help keep other pests down. Therefore I don't use some of the chemical warfare sprays you can use outside.So I bought a couple of these which were cheaper through Amazon 3rd party than direct from the maker and tried them out. And here's the rub. Whilst I think the level of wasps is lower it's a bit hard to really tell. Overall I think that the area around my patio table is less of an issue and that's to the good. However it might just be that the local wasps have decided there is a better place to plague for a while.On a more practical note, what you are actually buying is a grey bag that has a slight pattern on it that is supposed to replicate the look of a wasp nest. You then go and find a suitable packing for it which ideally should be free given that these are a little expensive for what they are. I used old bubble wrap. To be honest when I said a little expensive I should say, a lot expensive, because these probably cost all of 20p to make each.In the end I guess one has to try everything to ensure a wasp free BBQ sometimes and if you can get these cheaply then worth a shot. If you can't get them at a good discount then don't buy them because they certainly are not worth what the manufacturers want to charge.

Hung them up as per the instructions, but they’d blown away within 2 days. Waste of money

Really works! Didn't expect it, but they'd already made the start of a tiny nest so I put this up next to it and when they were came in after it was up, they took one look and turned around.... very pleasantly surprised!

Bought these on recommendation from my daughter and they work!!! Have hung two to keep wasps away from my precious cat who would be chasing them given half a chance 😢

Great
