How do I prevent wasp colonies around my house?
Question:
Answers:
If you find they are primarily locating their nests in cracks or large openings in the eaves, buy some steel wool in bulk, (10 pads should work) and poke it into the openings after you have rid the nest of them.
Ridding the nest, I've had great luck with the Ortho wasp killer that you can spray from up to 10 feet away...coat the entire area and the nest good and don't do anything until the next day. Letting it all dry well.
If you have a regular pest regime with a reputable pest controlservice, they can help you in the preventative side of this, just tell them what you're up against.
Instructions:
1. Wait until after dark, or early in the morning. This is done to make sure that all of the wasps are in the nest.
2. Approach the nest VERY quietly.
3. Pour the fuel into the entrance of the nest.
4. Immediately have your partner cover the hole with the wet cloth so the fumes and wasps won’t escape.
5. DO NOT light the fuel. The fumes alone will kill the wasps almost instantly.
6. RUN!
