Good4Bees Vespattract Attractant for Asian Hornets

Product Description

The Good4Bees Vespattract attractant for Asian hornets is a ready-to-use sugar-based attractant for selective Velutina traps. It was specially developed to reliably attract Asian hornet queens and gynae, thereby monitoring their spread without unnecessarily harming other insects.

The attractant is mixed with water according to the instructions and poured into suitable traps, such as the Good4Bees Velutina Trap. This creates a long-lasting scent field that specifically guides hornets into the trap, allowing finds to be counted, documented, and reported to the appropriate authorities.

Special Features

  • Ready-to-use sugar attractant with a special active ingredient molecule for the Asian hornet
  • Optimized for female hornets in the fall and hornet queens in the spring
  • Clear dosage: 50 ml of attractant per 150 ml of water
  • Approved and certified with a European license for use in monitoring traps

Advantages

  • Selective attraction of the Asian hornet supports monitoring and mapping
  • Gentle application focused on counting and monitoring rather than indiscriminate control
  • Predictable duration of effectiveness of approximately 10–14 days per filling
  • Easy to use: mix, pour, hang the trap
  • Compact packaging is easy to store and can be deployed quickly when needed

Conclusion on the Good4Bees Vespattract Attractant

The Good4Bees Vespattract attractant is a well-designed tool for anyone who wants to keep an eye on the spread of the Asian hornet. When used in conjunction with selective traps, it supports systematic monitoring around apiaries and known infestation areas.

Use the attractant strategically in your Velutina traps and play an active role in controlling the Asian hornet.

Holtermann’s Practical Tip: Use the sugar attractant early in the year near known flight paths and forage plants of the Asian hornet, and document each catch with the date and location. This will provide a valuable overview over the course of the season, helping you and the relevant authorities locate nests more quickly.

Yes, the attractant can be used at a sufficient distance from the hives to count hornets and identify flight paths without unnecessarily disturbing the bees. A location slightly away from the Entrance has proven effective.

The mixture is generally effective for 10–14 days. You should replace the contents by then at the latest to ensure the scent remains strong and the trap continues to work reliably.
