"I had a nest built under my deck two summers ago and it cost me $300 to have it removed. I bought three of these before spring this year and hung them at each end of the yard. No scouts, no nests, no stress. That is the most effective $45 I have ever spent on my home."

The Trap That Works Before You Even See Them
Most people wait until they have a problem. By then, a colony has already chosen your yard as home. The smarter move is prevention - and that starts with understanding how Asian giant hornets actually behave.
- Scouts find your eaves and decide they're perfect real estate
- A full colony forms before you notice - by then it costs hundreds to remove
- Harsh chemicals near kids, pets, and your vegetable garden
- Summer ruined - you stop going outside, cancel barbecues, feel anxious
- Scouts see an existing colony and fly on - your yard is already "taken"
- Zero chemicals, zero mess - completely safe for kids, pets, and pollinators
- Hang it once, let it work all season - no refills, no maintenance, no fuss
- Your summer back - outdoor meals, garden time, and peace of mind all season
Up in 60 Seconds. Working All Season.
No tools, no chemicals, no learning curve. Just hang it where scouts might look and let nature's own psychology do the rest.
Choose Your Spot
Pick a sheltered, visible spot - under a porch overhang, from a tree branch, or near your garden entrance. Anywhere a scout might scout first is exactly right.
Hang and Walk Away
The built-in hook means it's ready to hang the moment it arrives. No assembly, no baiting, no sticky traps. One motion and you're done for the entire season.
Scouts Move On
Asian giant hornets are instinctively territorial. When a scout detects what looks like an established colony nearby, it reports the territory as occupied and the search continues elsewhere - not in your yard.
Why This Works When Other Solutions Don't
Chemical sprays react. Sticky traps react. This decoy acts first - deterring hornets before a single scout marks your space as home.
Prevention, Not Reaction
Stop hornets from choosing your yard in the first place. Once a colony establishes, removal is expensive, stressful, and risky. This stops that story before it starts.
Zero Chemicals, Ever
Safe around children playing in the yard, dogs sniffing through the garden, honeybees visiting your flowers. Effective protection that doesn't compromise the things you're protecting.
Set It and Forget It
No bait to replace, no traps to empty, no maintenance schedule to remember. Hang it at the start of the season and let it quietly protect your outdoor spaces until autumn.
Works With Nature
Hornets are territorial by instinct. This decoy uses their own behavior against them - no fighting their nature, just redirecting it. The same science that keeps nesting hornets from crowding each other.
Incredibly Lifelike
Every ridge, layer, and weathered texture on the surface mirrors what a real nest looks like to an approaching scout. It doesn't just suggest a nest - at a glance, it is one.
Protect More with More
Larger properties, multiple entry points, a detached garage - cover every corner. Buying two or three gives you full perimeter peace of mind, and the price per unit drops when you bundle.
Your Yard, Your Rules - All Season Long
Homeowners With Gardens
You've spent years building your outdoor sanctuary. Asian giant hornets don't just threaten you - they devastate pollinators and can destroy a vegetable garden in days. Protect what you've grown with a solution that's as natural as the garden itself.
Families with Young Children
A sting from an Asian giant hornet isn't just painful - it can be medically serious. Keeping them away entirely means your backyard stays what it should be: a safe place to run barefoot, chase butterflies, and be a kid without any worry.

Everything You Need to Know

How does the WaspAway decoy work as an Asian giant hornet trap?
Asian giant hornets are highly territorial. When a scout searches for a new nesting location, it checks the area for existing colonies. The WaspAway decoy looks convincingly like an established nest, which signals to the scout that the territory is already claimed. The scout moves on rather than risk a conflict, and your yard stays nest-free.
It is deterrence, not capture - preventing the problem rather than reacting to it. That is what makes it so much more effective than traps that only catch a handful of hornets after a colony is already established.
Where is the best placement for an Asian giant hornet trap decoy?
Hang your decoy in a visible, sheltered location roughly 8 to 10 feet off the ground. Porch overhangs, tree branches near entry points to your yard, fence posts near gates, and the eaves of sheds or garages are all ideal. The goal is to place it where a scouting hornet would look first.
For larger properties, using two or three decoys to cover different zones delivers the best results. You can read a detailed placement guide on our DIY trap placement blog post.
Is this safe around children, pets, and bees?
Completely. The WaspAway decoy uses zero chemicals - it is a purely physical deterrent. There is nothing toxic, no bait, no adhesive, and nothing that could harm a curious child, a sniffing dog, or a passing honeybee.
This is one of the reasons beekeepers in particular love it - protecting hives without introducing anything harmful into the environment. Safe for your family, safe for your garden's pollinators.
How long does one decoy last? Do I need a new one each year?
Most customers get multiple seasons from a single decoy. The weathered, organic look actually becomes more convincing over time - it takes on the character of a real, aged nest. Simply inspect it at the start of each season.
No refills, no replacements needed unless it is physically damaged. One purchase, years of protection.
How many decoys do I need for my property?
For a standard residential backyard with one main outdoor area, a single decoy placed near your most-used outdoor space works well. If you have a larger property, multiple garden zones, a detached garage, or a long fence line, two to three decoys give you better coverage.
Our bundle options - available right on this page - let you stock up at a lower cost per unit. Most customers with medium to large yards choose the 3-pack.
Does it work against regular wasps and yellow jackets too?
The territorial behavior that makes this effective against Asian giant hornets is shared by many social wasps and hornets - including common yellow jackets and paper wasps. Many customers report a noticeable reduction in overall wasp activity near the decoy.
While results vary by species and local conditions, the WaspAway decoy delivers a broad deterrence benefit that goes well beyond just one species. For more context, read our guide to the best Asian giant hornet trap options.
Don't Wait Until They've Already Moved In
The best time to deter Asian giant hornets is before the first scout ever arrives. That window is now - before the season peaks and nesting pressure builds. One small decision today means a summer of worry-free outdoor living.
