The northwest corner of our roof has a yellow jacket nest underneath a
flaw
in the shingles, which I plan to fix once I get rid of the bugs. These are
the variety that like to buzz around garbage cans and such. I bought a
trap
and hung it right next to the nest. The phermone lure didn't interest
them,
neither did Pepsi. One thing that did work was the slime from the bottom
of
my garbage can. But there wasn't enough of that to last. I did find that
dark corn syrup was somewhat attractive.

I've used two cans of insecticide on this nest, which put them back some,
and I want to get rid of it so I can fix my roof before it gets cold. But
the lil *******s are stubborn. What is irresistable to these buggers? I
want
to make the inside of the trap black with bugs.

Thanks



Stop messing around and use the Diazinon. Good luck in finding it.. In pa.
anyways the only stuff you can buy is what is left in the stores.

I bomb the inside of house first with flea spray. then I spray the outside
with diazionon using a sprayer. Dont double the dose. follow the mix.
Use common sense(sp) with diazionon.
Dont spray in to wind.
Cover up with long sleaves gloves.
Dont overspray water ways ect.
Leave the house for the night.
