Bee Safe Wasp Trap - Fast, Safe, and Seriously Effective
A wasp trap that protects bees. NZ-made, UV stabilised, chemical-free, and designed to fit any plastic bottle. Fast, safe, effective wasp control for every backyard.
Designed for Wasps. Safe for Pollinators.
Take back your outdoor spaces with a trap that works fast, protects pollinators, and helps reduce plastic waste. Designed and manufactured in New Zealand, this clever wasp trap targets the pests that ruin your summer while keeping our precious bees safe.
Wasps are attracted to the sweet scent of rotting fruit — which we easily mimic with a simple mix of beer and sugar. Bees, on the other hand, naturally avoid it, making this trap a smart, selective solution for homes, lifestyle blocks, orchards, schools, cafés, and campsites.
And the best part? It uses something you already have: a plastic bottle. Just screw the Wasp Trap Cap onto the top, fill with your bait, and hang it up. When it’s full (and it will get gross), simply unscrew the trap, pop the bottle’s original cap back on, and throw the whole thing away. No mess. No cleanup. No chemicals. Quick & Easy Wasp Trap Setup
Mix your bait
Fill any plastic bottle with cheap beer 330 ml and 3 teaspoons of sugar.
No need to get scientific — the wasps aren’t chemists.
Eyeballing it works fine, or use the handy little measuring scoop.
And please… don’t waste the good beer on this.
(OR) Buy some bait from stores like Mitre 10 and Bunnings.
Attach the trap
Screw the Wasp Cap Trap onto the top of the bottle. It fits standard soft-drink bottles perfectly.
Hang it up
Thread a cord through the built-in hanging slot and pop it up wherever you need it—fruit trees, gardens, patios, decks.
Around 150 cm high is ideal… but honestly, don’t overthink it. It works.
Install in the evening
Wasps are far less active at night, which means it’s safer and easier for you to set up.
Repeat as needed
Use as many traps as your space requires.
I go with a couple per fruit tree and a couple where people like to chill. The Better Way to Trap Wasps
