how can you kill wasps at home?

Answer 1

If you know where the nest is:
Buy a can of hornet and wasp spray from your local hardware store. Get up between the hours of 3 to 6 am when the wasp are asleep. Grab a flashlight and wear long sleeved clothing and long pants. I wore a hoodie the first time I sprayed wasps to make myself feel safer, but really unnecessary.

A wasp nest is pretty contained, so there are a limited number of openings. Cover the openings with the spray which will turn into foam. Keep spraying until you see no more movement from the wasps. Many of them will drop down onto the ground. The sprays are very effective and the wasps don't tend to move a lot at night and in the early morning.

Knock down the nest with a stick and bag it up to be thrown away. I wouldn't touch the nest with my bare hands. Just knock it into the bag with your stick.

Answer 2

I get wasps nests all the time outside - in my lemon tree and in the rafters of my carport and I just wack the nest with a broom and then run like hell into the house and lock the door, because they will chase you like a mad dog if you bother their nest. But, if their inside of your home - I would call an exterminator because wasps are nothing to mess around with - their way worse than a bee sting and their very vicious. Good luck to you in getting rid of the wasps.

Answer 3

These are pesky things that can cause death for individuals who are alergic to its sting.. As you may know....Paper wasps, hornets and yellowjackets construct nests of a paper-like material which is a mixture of finely chewed wood fragments and salivary secretions of the wasps. Paper wasps typically build their umbrella-shaped nests under eaves and ledges. These wasps are not as aggressive as yellowjackets or hornets, and can be eliminated rather easily with a wasp and hornet spray sold at most grocery and hardware stores. These formulations have an added advantage in that they often spray as far as 20 feet.

Treatment of wasps, hornets, and yellowjackets is best performed at night; paper wasps can be eliminated during the daytime provided you do not stand directly below the nest during treatment. Most wasp and hornet sprays cause insects to drop instantly when contacted by the insecticide. Standing directly below a nest increases one's risk of being stung.

Answer 6

Make a trap--cut 1/4 of a pop bottle(2 liter or so) off and turn that upside down inside of the rest of the bottle and tape, staple, join them somehow together and put some juice inside. Hang it from a string wherever they are and they will go in, but they are too dumb to get out. Your bottle will probably need replaced every few weeks cause they tend to fill up fast.
