Just go buy some wasp spray. That stuff shoots out a good 15 ft. stream and kills in seconds once the nest is hit. It allows you to be far enough away from the nest to not be stung.
I've used this product many times when getting ready to prep a house to paint and yellow jackets have nests built in the overhangs.

Had this problem last year. It was too hard to get close as they were consistently flying out even on cold days. Sprayed about 4 cans of wasp spray in all exit holes within 2 weekends. They ended up making a 3 ft diameter hole trying to get around the spray but they all died.

I’ve heard of a bucket of dawn/water with some cheap meat hanging with only an inch showing above the water. They bite off too much and fall into the water.
I’ve also heard blaring Creed into the hole works
YouTube is wonderful

I use the method that Lewis Miller recommended a good while back. Mix up a bucket of insecticide, almost anything. Get a headlamp and go at night. Quickly pour bucket over hole and leave bucket upside down over the hole. Run.
It's worked perfectly 4/4 times.

2 liter Pepsi bottle filled with gas or diesel fuel. Wait until nightfall, ease over there, turn the Pepsi bottle over quickly and stuff it in th hole. Nest day there will be many dead. If there is a second hole they will be hovering there. Wait till nightfall and repeat the Pepsi bottle process. 2 days and they be daid.

Just trap the queens when they emerge in the spring. Much easier. One queen = 10,000 yellow jackets.

I ran over a nest with the mower a few weeks ago and 3 of those bastards got me. I mixed a cup of dawn in a 5 gal bucket of water and poured down the hole at night. Done deal. Killed every one of them.
