Description: Heptyl Butyrate 99.8% - XL Bulk Yellow Jacket Attractant, Bait, Lure Shipped in sealed glass container. Shipped with 3ml Pipette for easy dosing. Standard Dosage Rate 1.5ml 160 Doses Per Bottle! Heptyl butyrate is a natural ester compound found in fruits such as apples and pears, which makes it an attractive food source for Western Yellow Jackets. The chemical is typically used in traps specifically designed for Western yellow jackets, and when placed in the trap, it emits a sweet, fruity odor that attracts the wasps. Once they enter the trap, they are unable to escape, thus effectively reducing the population of yellow jackets in the area. Using heptyl butyrate to attract western yellow jacket wasps involves the following steps:Obtain a yellow jacket trap: These traps are typically made of plastic or metal and have a compartment where the heptyl butyrate lure is placed.Add the heptyl butyrate lure: The lure is usually in a liquid form and can be purchased from pest control supply stores. It should be added to the designated compartment in the trap according to the manufacturer's instructions.Place the trap: The trap should be placed near yellow jacket nests or areas where they are commonly found, such as picnic areas or trash cans.Monitor the trap: Check the trap regularly and dispose of any trapped wasps. You will need to replace the lure periodically as it will evaporate over timeEmpty and clean the trap: Empty the trap of dead wasps and clean it with soapy water or a disinfectant. Lures that are left in the trap for too long can become rancid and will not attract wasps.It is important to note that yellow jacket traps are not meant to be a complete solution to yellow jacket control, but rather a means of reducing the population in a specific area. It's also important to keep in mind that wasp traps can be dangerous and should be used with caution.
