    My mates mom had a nest in behind the mortar of the main wall of he ground floor flat, with that one I just silicon'd the b**gers in for eternity on that one, they weren't happy but having sticky wings slowed them down!
    Nice work John McClane, tell Holly I said hello.
    But....................This thing would need a skip, never mind a bin bag and a dance like Pinapple louie.

      Bees are cool. I would do my best by them. Try a different aftershave?

          I'm with MAD4IT - for bin bag read plastic dustbin. I got ready with the lid while my (suicidal) mate hooked the nest into it - DON'T MISS. Banged on the lid and then run like *as above* . Leave the lid on till they all die of boredom - 'cos there's nuffing to do inside a bin.

            or as the Bee said to the Wasp

            "Bin there, done that"

              I had one in the attic two years ago, called the council cos I knew no better, ****s sung me for £55.

              Fat bloke came out and spread something on it and said to stay out of the attic for 2 days. It killed the wasps and melted the nest.

              Got told the can of stuff only costs a fiver in the hardware shop in town.

                i am a roofer and come across wasps nests often,we tend to prod them with a lath,destroying the nest (gets quite funny sometimes)but on the last one when we came down the ladder, there were about 500 angry wasps in the window luckily the lady was on holiday and two days later when they were dead(think the sun fried them)the cleaner let us in to hoover them up twas v funny

                  Get the powder for killing them from any hardware type shop, wait till dusk when they should all be back in the nest then puff the powder (as much as you can very quickly) in the entrance to the nest and leave it.
                  They will be ****ed but all dead by the next day then just destroy the nest. I have done it a few times with no problems and the powder should only be 3 or 4 pound.
                  cheers Kev

                    Tonight is the night.
                    Around the edge of darkness I'm going to move into position and then, when they're not looking, a full chemical assault will take place! Then hopefully a controlled withdrawal back to the kitchen for a full mission debreif with the missus.

                    Just in case something goes wrong, I never liked most of you anyway.

                              That nest above deffo looks alien! Contact Olivia Dunham @ Fringe and tell her I said hello and sorry about the other night.

                              Taff, I haven't had a fag in almost 3 years and didn't want to start again so give a pack to the kids to split between them.

                              BUT....Mission accomplished.
                              I went Oscar-Mike at about 11:30hrs and bar a couple of lazy ones stting outside it was spookily quiet.
                              Took up the tin and an 8-12 second burst was recommended, but once I started I went a wee bit FUBAR and emptied the tin on them.
                              Then back to base and received absolutely no recognition of my bravery from my missus.
                              Just had a recce around ground zero this morning, still saying Frosty just in case, but there is absolutely no sign of any Tangos.
                              Job done me thinks
                              Hasta La Vista, Waspy
