Fatal Funnel FFW-6P Wasp and Hornet Traps, 6-Pack

Installing two of these 'Fatal Funnels' into an empty and clean large soda bottle was pretty easy, but be very careful cutting the criss-cross slits into the bottle. This can be a very dangerous operation. To start, remove the label on your bottle using soap and hot water. Next screw on the top. I then marked the recommended criss-cross patterns on the bottle using a magic marker. Then I used a strong box cutter razor knife with a new sharp blade. Tip: slowly press the blade tip down into the center of the criss-cross, gradually adding pressure. The blade will slowly start to puncture and penetrate the clear plastic. Be super careful not to cut toward your hand or your body. Once finished with the two criss-cross cuts, I installed two of these 'Fatal Funnels' on the bottle per the included instructions. The funnels fit tightly and have not moved after being used for more than a month now. Per the instructions I used (Kroger brand) apple juice - I filled the bottle about 2-1/2" deep and placed the bottle on a garden table in our back yard. After the 1st sunny day, it had trapped only one bee, but not to worry. The next afternoon, the bottle had trapped about 25 yellow jackets - they eventually drown in the apple juice. After 3 days it had trapped maybe 50 yellow jackets and several giant hornets. After the bees die, the bottle can be easily cleaned out - I poured mine out in the woods and all the dead bees and old apple juice came right out. I rinsed the bottle with water and refilled it again with apple juice. After 4 days I again had caught about 50 yellow jackets. I then prepared a 2nd bottle and moved it to another part of the property and like before, in a day or two it started trapping lots of yellow jackets and a few giant hornets (that look just like huge yellow jackets). After 3-4 weeks our population of dangerous yellow jackets had really diminished.
