Best treatment to kill wasps, nest entrance not accessible

    Hi, I've noticed wasps have been nesting in a cavity wall at the back of my garden behind my shed. The entrance is not assessable but I can see them flying in and out. The closest I can get to it is about 2 or 3 foot away so I can't get at the entrance.

    It would be possible to spray them as they fly in and out.

    Is it best to use the wasp nest powder, the wasp nest foam, fly and wasp killer spray, or another product?

    If you dose the area with the powder, they should drag it in. I had them in a house under the tiles and this worked for me.


    After activity stopped, I lifted the tiles and removed the physical nest. Dosed the cavity to stop re-occurance and no problem there since.

    Best policy would be to A/ Pay a local professional. Or B/ Stay away from them and know that they'll be gone in another month or so anyway.

    " Oh! But they might sting me! "

    Possibly. And they'll bloody near sure as hell sting you, if ye start chucking stuff at them! Your call, Sherlock.
