FAQs

How does the Waspinator work?

The Waspinator imitates a wasp nest. When a wasp detects this imitation nest from a distance, its sensitive eyes perceive it as a rival territory, causing it to turn away to avoid a potential conflict.

Is this product safe for children and pets?

Yes, the Waspinator is completely safe as it uses no chemicals, traps, or poisons. It relies solely on visual deterrence.

Will this harm beneficial insects like bees?

No, the Waspinator is designed to deter wasps specifically and does not harm or trap beneficial insects such as bees.

How many Waspinators are in a pack?

This product is supplied as a twin pack, meaning you receive two Waspinator units.

Where is the best place to hang the Waspinator?

Hang it in a prominent, visible location such as from a tree branch, under an eave, or on a washing line. Avoid hiding it behind leaves or dense foliage.

How long does the Waspinator last?

The Waspinator is made from durable, weatherproof polypropylene and is reusable for multiple seasons when stored correctly.

Can I use the Waspinator on holiday?

Yes, its lightweight and compact design makes it ideal for taking on picnics, holidays, or days out to keep wasps away from your chosen spot.

Troubleshooting

Wasps are still present near the Waspinator

Ensure the Waspinator is hung in a highly visible location and is not obscured by foliage. Wasps need to see it from a distance to be deterred. Consider adding the second unit from the twin pack for broader coverage.

Wasps seem attracted to the Waspinator

This is unlikely, as the design mimics a nest. Check that the Waspinator is properly unfolded and resembles a nest. If there is an active wasp nest very close by, it may take time for the Waspinator to exert its influence.

Waspinator damaged by weather

While made of weatherproof material, extreme conditions can cause wear. If the Waspinator is torn or significantly damaged, it may need replacement. Minor dirt can be wiped clean.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To set up your Waspinator, simply unfold the unit and hang it using the integrated loop. Choose a prominent location where wasps are likely to see it, such as from tree branches, under eaves, pergolas, or even on a clothesline during a picnic. Ensure it is not obstructed by leaves or other garden features. The Waspinator is ready to use straight out of the pack and begins working immediately.

Compatibility: The Waspinator is designed to deter wasps and is compatible with most outdoor environments. It is suitable for use in gardens, patios, balconies, parks, and at beaches.

Care: Made from weatherproof polypropylene, the Waspinator is durable and requires minimal care. After the season, or if it becomes dirty, it can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Store it in a dry place during the off-season to prolong its lifespan. It is reusable for multiple seasons.
