      Thinking this would be less expensive than buying the Hot Shot product ($6-10 each) or even insecticide ear tags (25 count for around $25)

      So all those bottles with yellow liquid in them I kept finding in the blinds were really permethrin? Dang I threw them out...

        Is that bag stuffed with lead to where it needs a trace chain to hold it up? Will string work?

          has anybody had success with the brown bag bit?
          One helped me with a girl named Gladys when I was in junior high.

            Lol
            That would be an attempt by another lease member to drain the main vane...please don't confuse them!

                  I was curious about the brown bag results. After reading this thread someone suggest cattle ear tags. I bought some for all of our blinds back in June. A few blinds I put them in had 3-5 black widows in their already. I left them alone and put the ear tags in there. I checked all blinds this past weekend and happy to report that not only the black widows were dead but there were 0 wasps or any other flying/stinging creatures in the blinds. The cattle ear tags are a winner in my book!

                    Insecticide Cattle Ear Tags, been using them for years now. Never had an issue. I usually change them out in August every year.

                    Go in with a bunch of lease members to get them, seeing they come 20 to a pack.

                      After reading this I'm definitely gonna go to Tractor Supply tomorrow to see if they sell ear tags. If they don't I'll head to the feed store. We dodged red wasps and spiders all weekend getting everything ready.

                            I was told to paint the ceiling in your deer stand sky blue and wasp won't nest in it.

                              If you are concerned about the residue dripping on you, hang them up high in a corner or down low in a corner---
