Closed Ban the sale and use of Wasp trap enclosures used to kill wasps

Closed on

The Government should ban the sale and use of these Wasp traps, which lure wasps in and trap the wasp in a plastic container. This method is a slow and unnecessary death for Wasps that are just looking for food.

It is an unnecessary measure to trap and kill wasps that are actually doing no harm. The use of these traps entice them to a food source in a trap ultimately killing the wasp. Wasps are not trying to sting humans and majority of the time the sting albeit painful does not cause any harm.
