It's late in the season. They should be more attracted to proteins to bulk for winter than simple sugars like they do early spring.

(at least where I'm from they do this)

We put some raw chicken in a wasp trap once and my god, I’ve never seen so many wasps in one place. The thing was almost a quarter full by the end of the day.

Inner ear. A wasp delicacy. Rare around this parts since humans started burying their dead.
