Works best for coon and skunk though the wax is to valuable for that.

Probably would but I ain't dealt with yogi in my area nor would I want to get a bad habit started. If there's one critter beekeepers truly hate it's yogi.

A guy was just in my office this morning. He's been raising bees the last couple of years. He's had some trouble with mites. He seems to have cleared that up until yogi came a calling. He tried electric fence. When that didn't work, he started playing heavy metal music 24/7. He lives out in the country. He said believe it or not, seems to be working. Yogi doesn't seem to like it.


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

Yogi has been around my neighborhood..... I couldn't get away with the music it would attract the meth heads.

The guy said once yogi gets a taste of honey, an electric fence doesn't stop him. But, the heavy metal seems to have. It would stop me! laugh
Yogi visiting is better than meth heads. No telling what they would do.

Never used wax nest but knew an oldtimer that used paper wasp and hornet's nest in a hole to soak up the lure and give eye appeal.
