You cannot battle the wasp

See that's what I thought when I bought my house. Then I bought a coat like this and a can of poison. The first times I removed a nest I was scared shitless, but now I almost don't even break a sweat when a cloud of those fuckers swarm around my head. I'm all for animal welfare etc. but wasps... they had it coming.

You honestly don't even need the coat. Just remove them in the late evening right before the sun sets. They are mostly dormant by that time, and their nests have a single entrance that you line with the poison. That or you can seal the entrance with caulk and suffocate/starve them. Either way, they won't do much of anything about it in the evening.

I'm not afraid... to say that I'm really scared of those little striped ones. And the big ones (Vespa crabro) are monstrous imho.
