I don't know of anything to repel them but your common Wasp Spray from Wal-Mart works for me. Make sure all of them are on the nest when you spray it and they will all die, so you don't have to worry about them coming back. Then sweep down the nest and all will be well.
Talstar, I use it a couple times a year around my place. It's also great on fire ants
Where ya get it. I got fire ants, and don't want my grandson gettin in em.Quote:

You can also mix soap and water in tank sprayer. The soap plugs the thorax and will smother the wasps. Plus you can spray from a distance in case you are allergic to stings.
My local garden supply has it. You can google it and get a list of suppliers, or even buy it online.
This talstar stuff will keep them from building to begin with(an ounce of prevention is worth a lb of cure). As for as fire ants I just wet the mound with a mixture of the stuff as soon as I notice them.
I use termite spray I get at my local co-op. It kills them and they wont build back for the rest of the year. Learned the trick from the pest control company spraying my parents home.
Talstar is used for termites
Fly Stik
I buy these by the case. Have them hanging around the house everywhere. It catches other insects, the wasp come along to eat them and get stuck.
pyrethroid.
Lorsban will repel bugs snakes mice etc... If you can get your hands on it
remember to spray em right before dark when they all have arrived at the hoose !!
The best way to kill a wasp is to let it sting you. They will die soon afterwards. I think.
We have blue bird and martin houses.Blue birds and martins love wasp and flying insects!!!! My grandfather new what he was doing.He had blue bird and martin houses!!! never had wasps and flying insects always wondered why!!!! You can't beat experence!!!!
If you can buy Termidor, Its available online for 56 dollars you will have enough to last for the next ten years and it will kill the colony out. It also work on termites and a bunch or other bugs. Probably the best bug control out there. As far as the wasp just get a can or wasp spray that you can stand back 10 feet and spray the nest. the wasp shouldnt come back once you spray the nest if they arent all there when you spray it. I use to work at Terminix and this is the way we treated
Thanks for the info guys. I tried a Termite spray last year and it killed them but it didn't seem to repel them much. I'll get one of these and give it a try. Got one of those pull behind sprayers I can shoot up on the house in the spots they like to get into. That stuff in a can works wonders on killing them but I'll go broke with all the Wasps we got this year.
you could burn them out . lol
I bet they would die if they stung Satdoc!Quote:
