Just cut a large plastic bottle in half ,fill the bottom with something sweet and water and pop the top on upside down to act like a funnel :)

Ours worked so well last year (averaging 30 wasps a day) we left it with the site owner so they could use it :D

Oh and leave it a few meters away from where you are eating ;)

Thanks for the idea!

Just another, have a bin with a lid on it rather than just a plastic bag hanging near the tent...

I know this works great on files/mosquitoes - I bought one as a stocking filler for my OH who hates mosquitoes with a passion and he enjoys nothing more than the sport of catching them with this and watching them frazzle!
