[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 3418740, member: 7900"] Well, it isn't the same, but when we were in Oregon, I needed to put out some "traps" for hornets at one of the lodges under our care. These traps were the kind where one put a liquid into a "tray" inside the trap to draw the hornets. (The liquid came in a soft plastic casing that one cut the tip off and then put the liquid in.) Silly me, I decided to do this job outside and somewhat near where I was seeing about a dozen hornets. I cut the tip off at the top of a railing all around the deck and then put the liquid in the tray. Almost immediately, I was then surrounded by 3 or 4 dozen of the hornets. As per my normal routine around such critters, I didn't even so much as swat at them or wave my arms around. I had no problem with them being around me. As a side note, where I cut the tip off at the deck railing, there may have been a single drop get on the railing and hornets stuck around that area for 3 or 4 days, even though I had moved the trap about 50 yards away to a tree. I had to move that trap because it was drawing even more hornets to the deck. [/QUOTE]
