I do leave them alone if they stay outside Percy, it's just I do not like sharing my house with them!
I react badly to insect bites every summer and sometimes need antibiotics, so Gawd knows what a wasp sting might to do me.
I also worry about them indoors incase the dogs snap at them and get stung. A sting in a dog's throat can kill them if it swells and blocks their airways.
BTW, I have bought a pack of 2 Waspinators today, so we'll see how it goes.
I have read they need to be put up very early in the season, otherwise it is like shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted if you leave it till they have started building nests - and the Queens are out looking around already.

They don't harm, or kill wasps, apparently they just think there is already a nest there, so go elsewhere to make theirs.

Re: Waspinators
We had two nests at the care home last year, had to call the guy out to come and deal with them, one of the blighters stung me though, I’ve one of these fake nests in my shed, there’s no wasps in there , but I bought it for the summer house, we’ve been in it these past couple of days and we’ve had a couple of wasps flying in to suss out the place, I’ll have to get one for there...

Re: Waspinators
would be interesting to hear of the results of anyone using these, a few years ago i was stung by a wasp and had an anaphylaxis reaction and ended up in hospital, then referred for immunology treatment, which has taken two and a half years to complete, strangely i had my last appointment today, but need follow up checks for a few years yet. If you think these work please post here as and when, thanks31-03-2021, 07:55 PM

That must have been awful for you Macy. You must be very wary of them indeed now.
Thank goodness you got help in time.
