| walkerpkw's Full Review: Firemaster Get Lost Wasp |
That's right, 3 e's for 3 kinds of b's! All natural deterrent for Wasps, Yellow Jackets and Hornets. Not a bee killer but a (Nest Building) or (Nest Prevention) deterrent.
In late May while picking up gardening supplies I spotted the Get Lost Wasp product. Every year I get several Paper Wasp nests under my back patio. Knocking them down seems to work only temporarily. By the next day they've already constructed another home. Instead of spraying toxic chemicals I thought I'd give the 100% guaranteed deterrent a try.
To start with the Beee Free won't get rid of an existing or established colony. You have to carefully get rid of the pests first. This product will only detour them within an approximate 200 square ft perimeter. Once the pests are gone you simply hang the simulated nest in a desired area or one that is most frequently visited. The 5 step instructions are quite easy to follow.
If you've ever put together and hung a simple outdoor party decoration you're in business. The package is flat, thin and contains 2 collapsed accordion like nests with a inner support wire (to maintain its shape) along with 2 short strings to secure the simulated nests to a nearby tree or overhead hook. The way the Beee Free deterrent works is very simple. These creatures are very territorial and will not build another nest within 200 feet of another nest. Amazing but true!
So far (45 days later) there are no wasp nests nor have any been circling about my patio area. My adjoining lawn however is filled with dozens of them at all times. They're still around though, chewing on blades of grass then mixing it with their saliva which is part of the nest building process. But nowhere near the Beee Free. I should also mention I'm getting away with only using 1 under my 340 sq ft back patio...
Limitations and what the product was intended for:
That's basically the limitations of the product. It is 100% effective for my problem. Now towards the end of every summer I always have a issue with Yellow Jackets. This product will not deter these aggressive pests the least bit. As soon as I start my barbeque and place the meat on the grill, the yellow jackets are on the scene within minutes.
The Beee Free is made of natural paper and will not hold up if left out in the rain. Also it is very light weight and will have limited durability in high winds. It's hollow like a wind-sock and kind of frail so I suggest treating it as you would the American flag in inclement weather.
Warnings:
Do not attempt to use around Africanized Honey Bees! Don Not use as a Lamp Shade by placing a light bulb inside....
