Prevention is always the first step to keep wasps out of your yard. Crafted from outdoor-safe reed and rope, this woven design acts as a decoy nest, tricking wasps into thinking your outdoor space has already been infiltrated by other insects. Placing a pair of decoys, one on each side of the house, can deter wasps from moving in, especially paper wasps, which are territorial and generally won't build a nest that's within 200 feet of another one.
