At dark I think I'm going to spray the last of my poison into it, then cover it with a large glass bowl and see what that does.

It rained for 5 days straight, just finally checked on it, they all seem dead, zero nest activity, for now.... what a great suggestion.

Use a bottle of ammonia next time

For some odd reason I’ve had an outbreak of yellow jacket nests this year, after never seeing one in 10 years at this house. The gasoline at night time is incredibly effective.

Yesterday, while sitting on the porch, a damn yellow jacket flew by and stung me on the hand. I have declared war on all stinging insects for the remainder of the summer. I am still tolerant of honey bees, but not much else.
