Out of interest why do you have a dedicated European hornet trap? They do not pose any significant problem to bees or people in the UK as far as I know. May be different elsewhere perhaps.

I have plenty around here and I like to see them - they may be quite large but are pretty docile in my experience. Most folk who get stung by hornets have either riled their nest or squished one by mistake.
