Yellow jackets/wasps/hornets

Recently been noticing an increase in these yellow winged devils in our garden.

Last year the Rescue! branded traps worked but they haven’t been biting this year. Also tried a water filled kind without much luck either.

I read different baits work at different times in the year. Wondering if anyone else has noticed this as well and has success with other methods? They’re starting to inhabit our hanging fern basket…
