I’ve taken out a large wasp nest using the following method:
1) Buy a large can of wasp spray, a type with a very long stream distance. 2) Wait for a night when it’s cool enough that the wasps are dormant — the Internet says 50 degrees F, and I remember it being closer to 55 degrees. 3) Spray entire can onto the nest, completely soaking same, from the furthest distance the spray can would support. I remember this being about 15 feet.
I would not attempt this technique if the air temperature is 60 degrees or higher. I would also not recommend any technique that uses fire as a component.
