How high is it? We always waited until dusk (when they are in the nest) and hit it with copious amounts of bug killer.

and then run like hell.

Come back the next day and knock the whole thing down with a broom to finish it off.

- A good can if wasp killer can spray a stream like a super soaker, 2nd floor eaves even, a safe enough distance ,wait till evening - zeitgeist Jul 20, 12:35
- I'm seeing wait until late evening, spray a can of the stuff, hit the hole and fully saturate the entire nest. Get another can and hit again the - Diva Jul 20, 09:53 12
  - yep, we're seeing the same thing. - Mel Profit Jul 20, 09:55 5
    - awesome. -- nm - Diva Jul 20, 10:06
    - how big is the nest? if it is smaller than fist size, one can, wet towel, stompin' should be plenty -- nm - Beaker Jul 20, 09:56 3
      - about 10 inches tall/8 inches wide. -- nm - Diva Jul 20, 10:05 2
        
        yep. bigger than a fist but manageable for now. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 20, 10:23 1
        
        I'm thinking Lacrosse equipment + launching it into neighbors yard -- nm - oblique Jul 20, 10:27
  - have a wet towel handy, when you knock it down throw the towel over it and stomp the shit out of them -- nm - Beaker Jul 20, 09:54 5
    - 7 foot should be high enough to break the eggs if it's falling onto a hard surface. -- nm - spamlet Jul 20, 09:56 3
      - I use the towel to keep any still alive from coming forth for revenge ala John Wick -- nm - Beaker Jul 20, 09:57 2
        
        Now I'm imaging a group of wasps in a conference room with Mel drawn on a whiteboard. -- nm - spamlet Jul 20, 09:58 1
