Rescue makes pesticide-free pest control traps that actually work — with capacity numbers contractors can trust. Their fly traps capture up to 40,000 flies. Their wasp traps use visual technology instead of smelly baits. Everything’s made in the USA and designed to handle Montana’s outdoor conditions without chemicals or poisons.
High-Capacity Fly Control That Delivers
The Big Bag Fly Trap captures up to 40,000 flies per bag — that’s serious capacity for livestock areas. Water-activated lure (built-in) means no mixing chemicals or handling toxic baits. Just add water and hang it.
Recommended to hang at least 20-30 feet away from living spaces (patios, decks, home entrances) to avoid the strong attractant odor. That’s the trade-off with high-capacity traps — they work because they stink. But for barns, chicken coops, and equipment storage areas where flies breed, nothing touches this capacity.
The standard Disposable Fly Trap handles 20,000 flies — still massive capacity for typical applications. Durable construction holds up in direct sunlight through a full Montana summer. Both disposable models mean zero cleanup — seal the bag and toss it when full.
Visual Technology That Changes the Game
The TrapStik for Wasps uses VisiLure Technology: a proprietary multidimensional color pattern to attract target insects instead of chemical lures. No poisons or chemical killing agents; safe for use around children and pets when installed as directed.

| Safety Features | Bird guards and end spikes to prevent birds, bats, and other non-target animals from getting stuck |
Specifically catches queens and workers from spring through fall. Catching queens early prevents entire colonies. Protection of wooden structures: Prevents damage from carpenter bees (wood-boring) and mud-daubers (mud nests). That matters when you’re protecting expensive timber frame construction or log homes.
Reusable Systems for Ongoing Projects
The Reusable Outdoor Fly Trap delivers the same 20,000-fly capacity with economics that make sense for long-term sites. Economical and simple to reuse with available refill packets — buy once, refill as needed through the season.
Fill line marked on container for water level takes the guesswork out. Contractors appreciate gear that works right without instructions. The durable plastic survives multiple seasons of UV exposure and temperature swings.
Multi-Species Coverage Worth the Investment
The W-H-Y Trap represents serious engineering for comprehensive wasp control. Catches 19 species (including 12 yellowjacket species, 3 hornet species, and 4 paper wasp species) through its double-chamber design with 3 different attractants.
Won’t attract honeybees — critical when you’re working near agricultural operations or residential gardens. Reusable trap includes two-week attractant refill kit, making it economical for season-long protection.
The catch mechanism varies by model — drowning for liquid-based traps, adhesive for the TrapStik. All avoid pesticides completely, relying on attraction and physical capture instead of poisons.
The Verdict
Rescue delivers what contractors need: massive capacity, specific performance numbers, and designs that survive real outdoor conditions. The 40,000-fly capacity alone makes the Big Bag worth stocking for any contractor dealing with livestock facilities or waste management sites.
Skip the drugstore fly strips. When a dairy farmer calls about flies in the milking parlor or a restaurant needs help with their dumpster area, these traps provide professional-grade solutions without pesticide liability. The made-in-USA manufacturing shows in the build quality — these aren’t flimsy imports that fall apart after one rainstorm.
The odor-free wasp solutions solve a different problem entirely. Construction sites can’t have smelly baits near active work areas, but they still need wasp control. The VisiLure technology delivers without the stink, and the safety guards prevent liability issues with protected species.
Montana’s agricultural and construction markets need high-capacity, pesticide-free pest control that handles the scale of outdoor problems here. Rescue delivers exactly that.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How many flies can the Rescue Big Bag Fly Trap actually hold?
The Rescue Disposable Outdoor Big Bag Fly Trap captures up to 40,000 flies per bag. The standard Rescue Disposable Fly Trap holds up to 20,000 flies, while the Reusable Outdoor Fly Trap also has a 20,000-fly capacity.
Q: Do Rescue traps use pesticides or poisons?
No, all Rescue traps are pesticide-free and use no chemical killing agents. They rely on water-activated attractants to lure pests, then capture them through drowning (fly traps) or adhesive surfaces (TrapStik for Wasps).
Q: What’s the recommended distance for hanging Rescue fly traps from buildings?
Rescue recommends hanging fly traps at least 20-30 feet away from living spaces, patios, decks, and home entrances. The water-activated lure creates a strong attractant odor that draws flies effectively but isn’t pleasant near occupied areas.
Q: What’s different about the Rescue TrapStik for Wasps?
The Rescue TrapStik uses VisiLure Technology — a visual color pattern instead of smelly baits — making it completely odor-free. It includes bird guards and end spikes to prevent non-target animals from getting stuck, and remains effective in rain and heat without washing away.

The Rescue W-H-Y Trap catches 19 wasp species including 12 yellowjacket species, 3 hornet species, and 4 paper wasp species. Importantly, it won’t attract honeybees, making it safe for use near gardens and agricultural operations.
Q: How long do Rescue traps last before needing replacement?
