I enjoy just reading about someone killing a nest of these bastards...easily my least favorite creature on the planet...

just a couple of weeks ago I poured a coffee can of gas down a yellow jacket hole in a relative's yard near ellick....never saw a single one come out...

I had an LSU entomologist tell me this and he said he learned the hard way, yellow jackets often cut 2 holes. If you start treating 1, they fly out the other. Just something to keep in mind.

Killed a nest last week, was under a pallet of masonry stones that I wasn't going to be able to move, and couldn't get close enough to pour directly.
I had a Spill Stop Tube tube laying around, so I made an extention with more clear tubing, so I was able to fish the tube under the pallet and into the hole. Had a couple quarts of gas ready and let em have it. I've seen some locust going in and out of the hole the past few days, its gratifying.

Zero activity this morning. I was brave enough to pull back some branches and I found the entrance. They actually built up a tube-like structure along one of the branches. If I did not kill them all, next assault will be so much easier and I'll use the foaming stuff instead of another round of Viper. I will be shocked if this one application did it, as the web advice I read suggested it would not.

They ain't gonna come out with gas.
They die instantly. It's awesome.

Give me snakes over creatures that fly and sting!
