How to get rid of wasps in a concealed space?

Question

hello everyone! i've got a bit of a problem with wasps at the moment, as they seem to have decided to build a home above my porch. they're not in the internal structure, but they are behind a piece of wood with small gaps round the sides. I've tried some general bug spray, and they didnt care, so would wasp spray work, or will we need an exterminator?

Answer 1

Hi,

I have been told that smoke works. Tie a dampened cloth to the end of a stick, hold it over flames then place the smoking rag near the nest.  Don't forget to wear long sleeves and tennis shoes. Then you could always find out what naturally likes wasps for dinner! Good luck.

Answer 2

We had wasp nests at my house to and the wasp spray worked almost right away.

Answer 3

use wasp spray at night there all home and they dont fly at night so they wont see you or sting you

Answer 4

I've had this problem. Carefully watch where they are entering and exiting their nest then wait until night time and saturate the area with WD40. As they come out of the nest keep hitting them with WD40. It kills them immediately.
