What is the best wasp trap for Stone Fruit?

A reusable, bee-safe GotchaPest wasp trap hung upwind of gathering areas is the best choice for Stone Fruit. It draws foraging wasps away from people and food without chemicals or harm to bees.

Are wasp traps safe around children and food at Stone Fruit?

Yes. GotchaPest wasp traps use liquid bait, not sprays, so they are safe around eating and play areas. Place them away from where people gather so wasps are intercepted before they reach food.

When should I put wasp traps out at Stone Fruit?

Hang traps in early summer so you intercept the first foragers before nests reach peak size. The Pest Tracker shows when wasp reports are building near Stone Fruit so you can time deployment.

Will wasp traps hurt bees near Stone Fruit?

No. GotchaPest wasp traps use a bee-safe bait formula that targets wasps and leaves pollinators alone — safe for hives and gardens.

German and common wasps peak in late summer and can be a genuine danger at Stone Fruit — a sting is painful for anyone and life-threatening for someone with an allergy. Spraying around people, food and pollinators isn't an option.

Hang bee-safe traps upwind of seating, food and gathering areas so foraging wasps are drawn away from people — not towards them.

Deploy traps early in the season, before wasp numbers peak; late deployment means playing catch-up with aggressive nests.

Keep traps away from beehives and flowering plants — bee-safe bait targets wasps and leaves pollinators alone.
