RESCUE! WHY Trap Attractant Refill 2 Week 8-Pack - Non-Toxic Refill

In this review the RESCUE! WHY Trap Attractant Refill earns a recommendation for homeowners who want a simple, non-toxic way to reduce paper wasps, hornets and yellowjackets near patios and yards. The 8-pack provides a two-week supply in three-part attractant cartridges that fit the reusable WHY Trap, and the biggest reason to buy is its targeted, non-chemical approach that catches common nuisance wasps without luring honey bees. Setup and refillability are straightforward, and the scent is unobtrusive, making it a practical option for seasonal outdoor use.

Key Features

• Compatibility: Designed specifically for the RESCUE! WHY Non-Toxic Reusable Trap, the refills snap in quickly for fast replacement.
• Targeted attraction: The attractant lures paper wasps, red wasps, bald-faced hornets, European hornets, and yellowjackets so it focuses on common stinging pests.
• Two-week supply: Each refill set provides two weeks of attractant power, helping maintain trap performance over time without daily attention.
• No killing agent: The attractant works with the trap mechanics and a non-toxic mode of action rather than relying on sprays or chemical poisons.
• Outdoor placement guidance: Intended for outdoor use at least 20 ft away from living areas, which helps reduce pest activity near patios and play spaces.
• Made in the USA: Manufactured domestically, giving buyers reassurance about origin and quality control.

Who It's For

Homeowners with outdoor living spaces who want to reduce encounters with yellowjackets and hornets without using toxic sprays will find this refill useful. It is a good match for people who already own the RESCUE! WHY reusable trap and want an easy, low-maintenance refill option that does not produce an unpleasant odor.

It is less appropriate for someone seeking instant elimination of all flying insects, those who need indoor control, or anyone without the WHY Trap since these refills require the reusable trap housing to function. If large commercial infestation control is needed, a professional-grade solution would be better.
