Get some of this.
Had a nest in my garage saw the little stripey bds going in, a can of this into the hole they were going into. Job jobbed.
This /|\

We had one in the shed earlier this year and this sorted them quickly with no fuss. Quick squirt into the nest, preferably into the entrance and run away. Come back the next day to a very ex nest and the floor covered in dead wasps!!

Don't use powder - you have to get too close to use it (the foam squirts 2m - yep 2m!!). Fire is just asking for trouble!!

I am now armed with a can of Nippon wasp nest destroyer foam (apparently it is the same as the one above).

As I cannot see the nest, only the entrance, I am going to spray it at dusk this evening as suggested.

Thanks for all the helpful advice. If it doesn't go after a couple of attempts I will call in the pest control.

They'll disapear in a couple of weeks anyway, easiest to wait unless you absolutely have to remove it now.
Unless there's anyone allergic around, in which case get rid of the little fkers by means fair or foul.
I think that would come under "unless you absolutely have to remove it now"...

You could get them by using your in built skills

1. take your Katana (samurai sword)
2. poke nest with a broom handle
3. slice each stripey bugger in half with cunning, speed and dexterity as it flies towards you

or if you are feeling a bit slow, employ this guy

Strueth he is quick

Much more fun than conventional techniques

Do wasps and the entire nest die over the winter, or is there some sort of queen that you really need to get removed so they don't come back?

Thanks
I don't know, I've always used petrol, or something more explosive to remove them.

Can't you just destroy it?

Not recommended if the nest is in your home, or if you like having hair on your face!
