Are you looking for a safer more natural option for wasp and hornet control this summer? Consider this crocheted, outdoor hornet/wasp nest! The theory is that wasps and hornets are territorial, therefore if they see one of these decoys, they will avoid building their nests there. I cannot guarantee that your wasps or hornets will be fooled. However, it is a great option to try if you’re looking for a safer and chemical-free approach.

Finished Decoy nest is made with acrylic yarn and stuffed with Poly-fil. It is about 9 inches tall and 15 inches around.
