It's summertime......
I used to go through 3 cans of wasp spray a day when I was doing oilfield work!
One day an old man that lived next door showed me this little trick...
I thought I'd share it with you
1/4 cup of any dish washing liquid per gallon of water in a pump up sprayer will drop wasps all day long!
I have to admit... The first time that I tried it I was a little nervous and skeptical
The only disadvantage to this is the RANGE!
But if you'll wait until evening time when wasps settle down, you can walk right up on them and hit em with the soapy water....
Of course I'm not really scared even when they are active, between the length of your arm and the spray wand you are like 6 feet away from the nest or more, not close enough to provoke an attack. Then SOAK EM DOWN!
I use a mist with as much distance as possible, since a stream won't hit them all
Adjust your nozzle FIRST LOL
If the nest is too big, or I cannot get close.... I'll just mix the soapy water in a 5 gallon bucket (Or a gallon) and drench them!
Now I wouldn't mess with any hornets in a mud nest... Because you do have to GET THE SOAP DIRECTLY ON THEM! But wasps are easy!
They may wander around a little after, but they won't be flying anywhere!
Back in the old days, people had this kind of knowledge.... Back before everything was commercialized, and corporations became your enemy!
Think about THE SMELL OF WASP SPRAY!
That stuff is super-duper TOXIC (Even to YOU)
When pressurized SOAPY WATER will work just fine!
