I used to have nightmares about them....it's jellyfish now..lol!! Does smoking them out work the same for wasps as for bees?? I suppose it does but wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of their rage!!!!!ish... My OH sprayed a load of fly spray itno the nests and they fled!! But there are still a few around!!

Sorry for not replying sooner, we have been looking after our friends holiday letting agency so have been "meeting and greeting" from morning till night plus dealing with all the call out for such things as "we have one towel missing" to "We have had no electric supply since 11:00 last night"
Anyway finished now until the next lot come in at 18:00.
Ok wasp nest. just buy the one recommended for wasps in your local supermarket (if you cant find one for wasps use one for cockroaches as it stringer than fly spray) Follow the instructions and it should be ok. Most of the wasps you get here are called paper wasps. They are the ones whoch build small "paper" type nests. If its something larger then the nest can be covered in expanding foam and then disposed of. Beware the wasps wont be happy though so make sure you put on some type of protective clothing. Most wasps can sting through thick clothes.
Or alternatively as you cant get there with your car, learn to fly and crash into them from above
OK, this is serious, but they do it the hard way here...not advised and "please don't try this at home kids..."stuff. A friend of our's in Monforte had a wasp nest in the wall of her house...in the wall of her house! What she did when we asked her advice on removing a wasp nest which was in our M-i-L's garden was : "Wait until the late evening when the wasps have settled down. Soak a rag in petrol, stick the end of it into the entrance of the wasp nest and then set it alight". Bang. A rather dangerous solution....yet to try it, but don't fancy the wasp fireworks. Be some distance back, pressure hose at the ready, full protective clothing. But my goodness, it's a ****** pushing the lawnmower around the land and avoiding the thing.... Time to call the experts in, methinks.
