How to destroy wasp nest?
There's a wasps' nest in my garden - a hole (maybe two, close together) on
a sloping section of rough lawn. On two visits to Homebase a fortnight apart they had no stocks of their 'Wasp nest killer', £5.99, or indeed *any* wasp destruction product. Meanwhile it struck me that there must be several ways I should be able to do this myself. So I'm here to seek suggestions please. My own initial thoughts a 1. Put a plastic bag and a something heavy over the top to suffocate and prevent entry. 2. Pour fine sand or similar into the hole, with same objective. 3. Position a hose over the hole and trickle water into it to drown inhabitants and presumably make re-entry of others unlikely, even after hose switched off and water drains away. 4. Stuff some dry newspaper into the hole, douse it with paraffin and light it, with similar comments to #3. -- Terry, East Grinstead, UK |
