Evicting some tenants tomorrow.

I was walking out to my back yard this evening when I caught some movement above me under the shed roof. I looked up to see these guys giving me the evil eye. Luckily they didn't think I was intruding on their space and let me pass.
I will serve them an eviction notice in the form of a spray can of wasp killer tomorrow night. The nest is about the size of a salad plate and appeared in the last day or two.

Ewww...im one to live and let live but those nasty little buggers pack a wallop...I'd be sending them packing too! I'm not necessarily allergic to them but I swell up like a blimp with one sting. Good luck and be careful, they get mighty defensive when threatened..Ddf.

I neutralized a nest last weekend. They get real nasty when their larvae in the nest start to mature. I've be stung a couple times in my back yard mowing the yard. They seem to get real aggressive about lawnmowers. I thought I was getting hit with hot sparks from the mower one time, before I realized I was being attacked by wasp. The pain and swelling from those stings lasted longer than a week.

A small propane torch will light them up to crispy critters flying or not!

Id say those are more like Squatters on an already established Property... lol

The best time to get them is early in the morning while it is still cool, and they are still sluggish.

I took a can of spray out to hit the nest with and thought it would be a good idea to do a test spray or two. I did and the spray worked so I stood back from the nest and hit the button, one small burst and the can was empty! I beat a hasty retreat before the wasps could regroup. I'll buy some more tomorrow and finish the job.
