Summary

A pole-mounted wasp spray can holder for wasp nests that are up high on the house. The female pole connector is threaded for standard extension poles as used for painting and broom handles. Recommend tightening to 66mm-diameter spray can with two 1-inch #6-32 or M4 screws & nuts. Slide position up & down on the can to align the push button. I recommend a heavy monofilament line, which should be routed through the channel right above where the pole screws in (as in my photo). If the pole is very long, you might also want to use a spray can that is partly empty for lighter weight.

Inspired by a friggin wasp that stung me when walking out the back door.

SCAD file attached for those wanting to make modifications (sorry some parameters are hard-coded because I got lazy).

Thanks also to designers of other spray can holders here on Thingiverse which I considered before creating my own:

UPDATED 10/7/24: Increased thickness of "wishbone button pusher" which had warped. (Still works with old can attachment part.)
