Of course, if you want to cheap-out on some wasp killer (and not use chemicals), just get a good mix of dish soap and water to douse them with.

Then step on them when they are on the ground.

It was a very topical post for me because we’re on our way to our rural house and wasps have moved back in just under the roofline by the front door.

I’ve been toying with the idea of just buying a can of expanding foam insulation to spray into the crack to close it up, but it did occur to me that the wasps might not be pleased to have the foam invading “their” space.

I don’t want to be stung by hordes of angry wasps but I don’t have the money to call an exterminator either, since I’m already having the plumber out.
