Fast acting
By Joe on 05/03/2012
I'm a beekeeper and I remove wasp nest every day and I use this stuff all the time love it. Oil beast so once it's on them they can't talk to each other to atack you. And yes it's not good on carpenter bees best thing for them is (tri-die) dust

Worked perfect for bald headed hornets
By Hornet on 08/04/2014
I had bigger than a football sized hornet's nest in my front yard on tree by the mailbox. I read reviews and purchased 4 cans of Wasp-Freeze. Step 1: Located the hole...was facing mailbox... Step 2: so I get in my car and pull it as close ...lower windows, put some towels with small hole opening and i let the can go... I saw a few starting to hover but as soon as it hit the spray, I saw a few just drop dead. The spray broke at about 6 feet though...hence the reason for 4 stars. After emptying 1 can from car, I took other one and got out and walked towards it spraying directly on the nest. The hornets were FROZEN in the hole trying to come out. Got the third can and went very close and sprayed right onto it. It made hole in the nest and I emptied the whole thing in there. Two days later, I checked to see any activity, there was none, so took a garbage bag...slide it gently over the nest, and snipped the branches....tied the bag and in the garbage....problem solved :-) The cans empty out fast so order enough. I had ordered 4, so I have one spare just in case :-) Worked as it should :-)

Works OK, but was WF I better?
By Ernest on 11/05/2017
I've used both Wasp Freeze I and now, II....typically on one paper wasp species or another (no hornets, yellow jackets)....and have gone through 3-4 cans of each. My sense is that I worked better than II, though II does work. Honestly, I've noticed some of the consumer foam sprays have a faster kill, than II, but II still kills. I've used it also to discourage some of the paper wasps from building nests in their 'preferred' locations. I don't know if it's the insecticide itself or the petroleum distillate....I suspect the latter, since the big box sprays have the same insecticides but lack the distillate...and are ineffective in discouraging nest-building. Whatever it is (the particular distillates and/or the odor??), it does discourage them from nest-building, so I will keep using. Just wish they hadn't discontinued Wasp Freeze I.

yellow jackets
By Steve on 08/17/2012
Kills them on contact every time, ive used this on my property for a few years now. I have had nests and just nuisance bees, this kills them and also repels future bees. Great product!!! I found out about this product from a exterminator I used to use.

Better Than Most
By J-k on 08/21/2011
Am allergic to paper wasps and wanted to at least reduce the population in my eaves. This stuff works much better than the sprays you can get at your local store, but you still have to get a direct hit. Once you hit one though and it goes down, it usually stays down -- you don't have to drown it like you do with regular sprays. Would definitely recommend.

Effective on Cicada Killers
By Mike on 08/30/2019
We had dozens and dozens of them in the backyard. When active killers landed to rest, a direct hit squirt of this stuff killed them within seconds. Needs to be a direct hit though. I could kill 10 to 12 of them individually per spray can. I ordered a full case (12 pack) and using this reduced the total number of killers greatly before I ran out of spray. Backyard was usable to us again after my targeted treatment. But Im sure they'll be back near year from neighbors' yards.

Great Product
By Damien on 05/29/2012
This aerosol spray is excellent, keeps you far enough away from the bees but has a stong, steady foam spray to reach the hive and kills on contact. I used one can and sprayed under the facia boards on my house and the next day me and my kids collected 72 dead wasps and hornets off the ground around my house. I gave 4 stars because its a little expensive and it does run out very fast so either buy many cans or use a little at a time. But its definetly effective!

Powerful
By Shawn on 09/08/2023
Bought this to stop yellow jackets coming in and out of our house. This stuff knocks them out of the sky dead!! Amazing product but doesn't go very far. I went through 2 cans in a 5 minute period. Also doesn't seem to keep them away after it's applied like a foam. Actually it seemed that more yellow jackets came after as I think they are attracted when their “brothers in arms” die.
