This 4-pack of solar-powered stations uses a dual-component polymer construction to assist in managing flying insects. The high-visibility orange entry funnels are designed to increase hornet attraction rates, while the integrated blue LED light improves nocturnal capture of yellowjackets. The housing is made from Acrylonitrile Styrene (AS), providing high initial clarity for checking the status of your bait and captures.
Specifications show the unit uses a friction-fit lid and a 1.2mm wall thickness for the entry funnels. To help prevent moisture ingress into the battery compartment, it is advisable to inspect the solar cap after heavy rain. In extreme heat (above 95°F), the different expansion rates of the plastics may cause the friction fit to loosen, so hanging the unit in a location with afternoon shade can help maintain a secure fit.
Practical use and maintenance highlights:
- Dual-entry tunnels effectively prevent insects from back-tracking once inside.
- Orange UV-reactive pigments provide a strong visual lure for hornets.
- The lightweight design allows for flexible placement on various outdoor structures.
If you prefer a station with a more secure threaded lid to prevent accidental detachment, the Vanelc Solar Wasp Trap offers a threaded connection between the lid and body.
