Wasps In Siding

Paper wasps often build their nests under the eaves of a house so a spray is likely to get all over the siding.

Wasps in siding.

I ve tried sprays but find i must invert the can to reach the nest. If wasps have already established nests in your siding this year you may not want to install this solution until they have died off in the fall or wait to early next spring. When i invert the can and spray all i get is the aerosol no poison. The easiest and safest way is to locate and monitor the wasps suspected access point into the siding during the late afternoon.

The siding has many moisture weep holes i believe this relief cut simply allows for a very clean overlap of sections of siding. Wasps are nesting under the vinyl siding of my home where the foundation meets. I ve tried pumping diatomaceous earth into the area but i m not getting to the nest and the powder is obviously missing at least some of the wasps. Even after the nest has been removed stay vigilant and keep an eye out for new nests.

In our tests all of the foaming sprays left residue but nothing. Last summer i noticed there were paper wasps around the outside of our house back porch on the side of the sun room. Remember not all wasps build nests in the same place or same way so be sure to check gaps in siding patio decks soffit bushes and uneven ground for wasp nests. My husband thought i was nuts when i told him they were squeezing into the small holes of the siding.

This is the time of day when you are likely to see the most activity as the wasps return to the nest for the evening. A hive of yellow jackets near your home can turn yard work and outdoor recreation into highly hazardous experiences.
