Hello,

I have a yellowjacket next forming under one of the eves on my house.
It's still small, so I'm looking for some recommendations to get rid of
it. I put up a bee killer thing (those yellow cylindrical things), and
it's caught/killed a couple, but the nest is still guarded by more bees
than I feel comfortable taking on myself. I *could* knock it down with
a stick, but then I'd be chased by angry yellowjackets. Is there some
liquid I can spray on them that'll kill them (like vinegar or
something)? Thanks!

This is the nest that typically ends up like a
big upside down plate come summer? It's a paper
wasp nest, not a yellow jacket nest -- the latter
species builds nests underground, or in junk or logs
on the ground. Paper wasps are nonagressive,
do not readily attack, and are beneficial predators.
No reason to evict them unless they're located
very near human traffic. If so, take them down
with a garden hose.
