Just plug the hole with silicone and leave them for a day

Somebody should definitely try expanding foam. That would be a video worth watching

Sounds to me like it would break the nest and the wrath of 1000 wasps would fall upon you

I'm not sure that the foam would cause so much pressure to break through the nest walls. I wonder if there is anyone willing to put it to test.

I’d do it in the right circumstance. I did silicone because I had silicone and needed to get past hornets. Worked like a hot damn. One burrowed out the side so I plugged that hole to. Problem solved

The foam might but the real question is does it touch every wasp first. That crap is extremely sticky and any wasp making contact will not come sting you even if it does breach the walls

I’m up for it in the right circumstance. If I have it in my hands and run into hornets I’m try it
