I did this with a 2 liter soda bottle a few years ago.
If you have a dog, you have bait, if you get my drift.
Worked like a charm.
Thanks for a great Instructable!

Great for "distracting" bees too - then you can release them safely away from kids. African bees can be quite nasty and unwelcome at picnics and camp-sites.
