Yesterday I found a wasps' nest in our roof.

I dusted it with this;

You can get it from your ironmongers. All it needs is a tiny wee bit to be carried into the nest.

All my wasps were dead within an hour.

If its accessible, and you can get a cardboard box over it with out leaving any gaps to allow any of the angry little s out.....

Put the box over the nest without disturbing the nest (maybe best to wait untill all the wee waspies are all tucked up in bed). Get 1 can of expanding foam. Make a very small hole to allow the end of the nozzle in to the box. Empty the whole can in to the box and wait an hour or two. Remove box, together with nest nicely encased in hard foam.

What about the bits of the nest that are stuck to the wall? When you pull the nest away leaving a new door you'll have lots of very cross wasps.
Call the council or get a spray that works from long distance - preferably on a pole.

Hmmm, you'd need to get the foam right round it...... Never said it was fool proof!:eek:
