Selective Asian Hornet Trap

#ANYCUBICGARDEN Yet another selective Asian hornet trap, with white wine 😃 For queen trapping, it's that time of year. Bees don't like alcohol, pretty cool for them. If you have red filament, it's even better, I heard they like red. This system is just psychologically reassuring because: In Vendée, in 2009, no founding queen was trapped for 12 nests discovered, in 2010 "6 foundresses were trapped for 195 nests identified", and the following year, "the 400 traps only collected about ten founding queens for 485 nests identified". So, do as you please 😃 8.5mm entrance, so the European hornet, the big chubby one that he is won't get through. To avoid the European hornet to turn around us in the evening, I put a stronger light and farther away, with a fruit next to us for example, and I dim where we are, it works pretty well. You have to put it in a place with maximum sunlight. And plenty of 6-7mm outlets for midges or other small insects. With the little hat against rain, rain yes, but only if it comes from above 😃 There's no simpler way, a bottle, a rectangle cut, and then there you go 😉 The 4 mounting holes are designed to just push in a piece of filament, but tape, screws, spikes...works just as well. Fill with, beer(brown works better), blackcurrant and white wine, you can drink it, it cheers up 😉 Not expensive in filament, in time, in money....
