I have a couple of Hummingbird feeders, and quit a number of birds taking advantage of them. Then along came a single yellow jacket, and he would keep the birds run off the feeder. Just a single bee, but every time a bird would try to eat that bee would drive it off. So I decided to fix that critter, and put out a yellow jacket trap, baited with raw bacon. The trap was out and caught all these bees in 5 hours, and the hummingbirds have been left alone to free load on my sugar. I was really surprised at the number I caught, I figured that there was only one or two bugging the birds.
The heat killed those critters pretty fast. It was over 90 degrees, so they cooked inside that trap.
