<blockquote>I've got a wasp nest right by my front entrance. What's the best way of dealing with this? Or should I just leave it to the professionals. It appears to be inside my house as they are entering through a crevice.<br /><br />Damn nature, this always happens. I had a racoon that dug a hole in my roof once and was just chilling there like it was his cottage. </blockquote><br /><br />Are they yellow jackets, or black colored wasps? The black colored ones are more aggressive and usually have a ball-shaped nest hanging from a tree that looks like a brown fruit. The yellow jackets are usually the ones in the crevices, so I'm going to assume they're the yellow jackets.<br /><br />You can wipe them out yourself with a spray. How active is the nest? Are there constantly wasps coming and going, or is it more sporadic? If it's very busy and they are very aggressive when you come in the house it's worth it to just call a pro. But if it's sporadic, just buy a can or two and douse the crevice like a madman well after the sun goes down. <br /><br />We have to get rid of these nests all the time at my job, wasps make nests in the phone boxes up on the poles. I got wasp knowledge for daaaays. They once caused me to fall 18 feet and land on a car!
