By Neal in Los Altos Hills, CA on 12/14/2014

I have had excellent success for 10 years with baited yellow jacket traps, which have reduced my backyard yellow jacket problem almost to nil here in the SF Bay Area. I switched from other microencaps…

By Dave in Los Gatos, CA on 09/18/2011

By Jc in Oregon on 09/23/2016

Disappointed. Make your own bait stations.

By Jerry in Seneca SC on 08/08/2015

The bait stations are poor quality plastic. For the price, I would expect that they not crack down the side when removing the lid. I'll give 3 stars for the insecticide. Zero for the expensive bait st…

By Deborah in Quartz Valley, CA on 09/07/2011
