Let me tell you, I’ve had my fair share of wasp nests. They don’t just appear from nowhere, they become an issue after neglect. One day it’s no big deal, the next you look outside and it’s everywhere. I’ve lost count of how many nests I’ve destroyed throughout the years. That is why I think everyone should know how to destroy a wasp nest safely. I looked around online for information on how to destroy nests but most of the information available focused on wasps in the UK and Australia. The guide I found here was much more fleshed out, so I thought it would be nice to share it. I hope this helps.
You’re probably saying to yourself “how do I kill wasps?” or something similar, but where do you get that task started? Thankfully, you’ve landed at the right place and we’ll show you how to destroy a wasp nest easily.
As wasps enter your home through small crevices, you need to act swiftly to avoid the unwelcome intrusion. If you don’t take care of the problem quickly enough, then their nests can grow into a large mound of flies and waste, which is more difficult to remove. Whew! I managed to successfully destroy the wasp nest. I feel so lucky and grateful that I did it in one shot. I’ll tell you how and why, although if you do it yourself, it will be much more meaningful at the end.
How To Destroy A Wasp Nest
How To Destroy A Wasp Nest
1. Gather the appropriate tools for destroying a wasp nest. You will need a heavy-duty flashlight and at least one other person to help you.
2. Find the entrance to your wasp nest and shine your light on it. The wasps will fly out when they see the light, so be prepared for this!
3. Once you have located an entrance to the nest, hold your flashlight up in front of it and wait for about five minutes. This will allow any remaining wasps inside time to escape before you begin destroying their home.
4. When you are ready to proceed with destroying your wasp nest, take your gloves off and carefully place them on the ground next to the opening of their home. Then start digging away at dirt until there is nothing left but a hole in the ground where your wasp nest once stood!
5. Now that there is only an empty hole where your wasp nest used to be, you can fill it back up with dirt or grass clippings and enjoy having fewer pests around your home!
If you’re looking for a way to get rid of wasps, here’s how to destroy a wasp nest. First and foremost, make sure you have the right equipment. You’ll need:
A can of hairspray or spray paint
A knife or sharp object (like an ice scraper)
An old towel or rag
And lastly, some patience! Getting rid of wasps isn’t as easy as just killing all the ones you see. You have to destroy their entire colony—which can be a difficult task if you don’t know what you’re doing. Here’s how:
First, find out where the wasp nest is located and make sure it is high enough off the ground so that children or pets cannot get hurt by coming into contact with it. Once you’ve found it, use your knife or sharp object to cut down through the sides of it until you reach its center. Then, take your can of hairspray and spray directly into the hole until all of the wasps are dead. Finally (and this is important), set up a light around your house so that no more queens come back in springtime with new eggs on them!
