VespaLure® is a high-performance, plant-based attractant developed specifically for attracting Yellow-Legged Asian Hornets (Vespa velutina) and Wasps.
Formulated using botanical compounds, VespaLure® mimics natural scents that Yellow-legged Asian Hornets and wasps actively seek out as an energy source.
Used by professionals and trusted by beekeepers, VespaLure® produces a strong, long-lasting scent plume that draws hornets and wasps into traps, while avoiding the broad attraction to beneficial insects such as honey bees and other pollinators.
