    The wasps in Aspermont made nests ON the No Pest Strips, they didn’t deter anything in our blinds.

    I need to try the cattle ear tags.

I will never use anything else. I just zip tie them to a chair in the blind.

      Same here

        has anyone mentioned pest strips

        If not, they seem to keep them out of an old blind the windows dont seal anywhere near close enough

The door isn’t the tight RV type so there’s a gap at the bottom and handle side. They aren’t building nests like yellow jackets and I haven’t been hit yet. It’s getting old having to spray almost every time I come to the lease. I just know my wife will freak plumb the-hell out if one flies near her or land on her. Is there anything I can leave inside the blind to deter them? I’d like to try a deterrent before getting some type of weatherstrip. I hate drilling holes in fiberglass.
          I buy the little can foggers at Tractor Supply for Wasp and problem solved.

            Like others have said, seal the doors and windows, put insecticide strips inside and we also sprayed the exterior around the windows and doors with a pump sprayer of insecticide. it lasted about a season.

              This is all you need

              Put a new one of these in your blind every three to four months and your issues will be solved. I've used them for years and I swear by them.

                  Thanks all for the info. Was gonna do the weather stripping anyway. Gonna try the Hot Shot first and the the ear tags if the Hot Shot doesn’t help. Wonder if Hot Shot will take care of the little snails that are everywhere?

                    The No-Pest Strips work great!

                      This always worked for us---one blind was a two-person size and still only took one strip, cut in half, nailed in opposite corners. I always opened the door/windows and let it air out a bit before I settled in. Not sure that was needed but I felt better and the slight smell left.

                              wasps

                              I spray Demon around all the window sills and door opening on our Atasocsa blinds before the season. The only ones we see are dead.
