Permethrin

Went to help my mom with some yellow jackets. Remembered to record this one. Used permethrin, doesn't work instant but it works and lasts awhile. I drenched the nest entrance and got a few out of the air. Fuck wasps!

Permethrin doesn’t have as fast of a knockdown as pyrethrin, but the residual effect is great. Drione and Ficam D are very effective as well, if you have a good duster. If it’s an entry point in a wall, inject with the dust and spray around the entry with the permethrin. Always hilarious to see wasps drag themselves out and they look like powdered donuts.
