The Rescue! WHY Trap Refill system is a highly specialized 16-pack kit designed for season-long management of 19 different species of stinging insects. It utilizes a multi-modal olfactory lure, which includes a solid vial of Heptyl Butyrate, an Acetic Acid liquid solution, and a treated paper lure. The use of high-barrier laminated foil packaging helps prevent the premature leaching of these volatile organic compounds during storage.
Practical integration tips for this refill kit:
- Pour the liquid attractant carefully into the bottom chamber to avoid contaminating the entry cone.
- Ensure the solid lure is properly seated for maximum species selectivity.
- Keep the exterior of the trap clean to prevent insects from "hovering" outside the unit.
Specifications indicate the attractants are rated for a 14-day cycle under standard conditions (70°F). In temperatures exceeding 90°F, evaporation rates may increase, potentially reducing the active lifespan by 40%. Because the formula is non-toxic and lacks neurotoxic pesticides, it is a practical choice for use near vegetable gardens where food safety is a priority.
If you prefer a simpler, one-step attractant without the need for multiple vials and papers, you might consider the Spectracide liquid refill as a more straightforward alternative.
