Killing Yellow Jackets

I use diesel. Light it up. Kinda low and slow just like the BGE! Nothing is torture enough for those bastards.

At night, I used a 20oz water bottle filled with gas, place it to where it floods the hole, cover with a concrete mixing tub, and let it sit. The fumes will kill them.

2 Cycle gas/oil mix. 50:1 works well. Fill a small neck glass bottle with the mix and turn up in the entrance after dark. Light it up after it sits for five or ten minutes.

Yard torch works well too. Those things and chiggers weren't created by God.

Shredded bar soap will work, I guess liquid soap would too.

For the yellow jackets, I have used diesel and fire with success at night. Come back the next day and there is a crater where the nest was.

Gas makes quick work. No need to light it.

We found some at work one day when we were about to change out a pole. We used a whole case of bee booper in the two holes we found. Went back next day and it hadn’t phased them. Another case of bee booper. Didn’t phase them. The old man that lived there said he’d get them for us. He poured couple gallons of gas in hole ( what we wanted to but working for a company like mine we couldn’t). Went back to change pole the next morning and they were still there but knocked back big time. Had to finally get an exterminator out there to finish the job. We dug up the nest once they were all dead and it was huge. Several layers and bigger round than a truck hood. Good luck with them; they are straight from the devil.
