how close to the nest should the traps go?

Frankly, the traps were highly ineffective. Fly paper dripping with honey was far better.

If you put these traps out sometime in spring when they start coming around you usually end up with the queen yellow jackets in the traps dead. We now have no nest. Keep them out until the end of the year when the're no longer around. Works great for the beheaded wasps, flies, nats...does not work for mud wasps

I dont know, I get these out before hand, ( I put them out when its still a little cold) they wont work if an established nest is already there, destroy the nest if you can, then try to put it up, I am not sure of the kind of wasp I have but these really worked for me.

The traps are about 8-10 inches long and 2.5 inches or so in diameter. They work great for me!

squirrels and rabbits should. be in fear if you have a decent aim. pigeons hit the barnfloor as fast as gravity can pull them. no holes in the roof if you miss. raccoons and Skunks will be a problem. Opossums ack like you killed them I'm not sure about cats would definitely make them think seriously about digging in the flower beds. some of those nasty old Toms can take a pretty good beating and come back for more. it is far quieter than. a .22 with suppressor. neighbors woun't know you are shotting in town should work well for Crow reduction. Happy Hunting.

Sorry,can't help you there.I never used the trap (wrong insect). I would think that the seller could answer this question.

Take the caged animals out and cover the cages with some towels. Then go around spraying at the bugs, where you think they nest, and in the general air where they are in case you miss. Given the animals you have I assume you have Indian meal moths, you should get some traps as welll. If I was wrong then disregard that last sentence.

depends.....you'll need more than a suit if you're going after a big nest...smoke helps to disorient them too.but wear what you are comfortable with and definitely a hat under the veil to keep it off your face, stings on your nose suck.

I use dry dog food and leave a trail leading to the trap every 3-5 feet. Works wonderful. Good luck.

Kerry,I have owned 2 nests and they are great while they work. The problem is the base for the Nest that mounts on the wall. It has burned out and shorted on both of them rendering the nest useless. I would not purchase another. I am not a engineer but if you ask my opion it is not far enough away from surface.

Depends on what you animal you are catching.You can google on line how much food.I would cover the food area in back where you put the bait.

Cathy, You are correct. The trap uses a mix of pheromones that can get quite "stinky". Outside you may notice it when you're within 5 feet or so of the trap. Inside the home? I'm sure you'd be able to notice the smell a lot further away and I can't imagine it would be acceptable.Cheers,JonathanCustomer CareU-Spray Bugspray

No, you may disturb the nest, causing the queen to move to another location. I would spray around the nest, several feet away, so that when 'scouts' leave the nest they will walk over the sprayed area and then track it back into the nest. I had Carpenter ants and I never found the main nest, I did find 2 satellite nests. All I did was spray the sides of my house and the trunks of 8 trees, up to about 5 feet high. About a week later found about 100+ dead ants in a bathroom light fixture that was built into the ceiling. Since then I haven't seen any, that was Oct 2014.

You should not. It will attract the bugs right to the area that you are working. You want them to be lured away from the area you will be

I would find somewhere else unless you enjoy the zapping sound. Also, it will draw bugs to the area in general, so it should be away from where you sit, windows, etc. In general you hang them far away from the house or areas you hang out. Mine is below the overhang of a detached garage. (On a timer so that it comes on for a few hours every night) Line of sight doesn't matter, but you'll want to empty it periodically, so don't make it too difficult to get it back down.

I feel it is best to place it away from the house. You do not want bugs being drawn to the entrances of your residence. I had a problem with one of my Dynatraps, called the company and they refused to repair it. It is a "throw away" product. I will not purchase another one of their products. Worked well when it worked, but very short life. I would not recommend a person purchase this brand.
