This one above groung deck,attatched to the house,it also serves purpose as a carport and so the water dont drip between the boars on the cars,there is a sort a roof installed under the deck.So when it rains ,this roof carries the water away.
The problem is there are many wasp nests under the deck and there is no way to spray them ,that roof is sealed off.Only way you could get to them is between the boars.Usually i have never had a problem,water keeps them off,but this one is different.I was just washing the house ,got 1 foot of the deck wet and had to run.How can i kill them???Man said he used to pour gas between the boards.I told him it might stain the deck.You pour i will light the match,no refinishing
What is i run pure laundry detergent trough my injector to soap the hell out of it ,all at one time ,maybe mix it with some bleach or what ever??
What would you do????

Johny,
That is exactly what I would do. Would shoot them with a mixture that I use to clean houses with. Some bleach/Tide. Lay it to it. Let soak then hit them again. Then wash it off the deck before it dries. The problem you will have are the ones who are smart and hid right under the boards so that no matter how much you wet it, it will not get to the wasps.
You could try smoking them out also. Get some old pieces of jeans...and a smoker [like an old fire stoker] light the jeans blow it out then pump it in. Works for honey bees!
Other than that I have no more ideas. Hopefully someone else here can come up with something better!

Hey Johnny, Bleach works well on wasps. I used my house wash mix in a pump up sprayer and added about another ½ gal. of bleach. It killed every yellow jacket in my shed. They didn't even try to attack.

And don't forget.....the zero degree tip is your friend. Also takes down nests really well.
