All beekeepers know how dangerous wasps are, and how much harm they can cause a bee hive. The consequences of such an invasion can be very dire: the looting of honey reserves, the death of bees and the queen. For summer residents on vacation, the neighborhood with wasps can also be fraught with bites from adults and children. And one wasp can bite several times in a row. Hornets often settle next to wasps, and this is even worse. It is difficult to chemically remove wasps, and it requires money. But this damage and inconvenience can be minimized by using traps. The convenience of these traps is that they are easy to make, work continuously and efficiently - the wasps will find them themselves.
It is necessary
- - a transparent plastic bottle with a volume of 1.5-2 liters;
- - 500 - 600 g of pure water;
- - 4 - 5 tablespoons of sugar;
- - a piece of rope or wire.
Instructions
Step 1
Dissolve sugar in water. Pour the resulting syrup into a bottle. There is no need to tighten the cork on the bottle. Tie a string to the neck of the bottle. The trap is ready.
Step 2
Hang traps next to wasp nests, in places where wasps accumulate and throughout the entire area of the site.
Step 3
The number of traps is at your discretion, but there should be enough of them. The principle is very simple, the more wasps, the more traps.
