There are a few things that you can do, such as spraying it with a hose, dousing it in gasoline, etc. However, the spray is probably your best bet. Be sure that all persons assisting are in no way shape or form allergic to the venom of stinging and biting insects, because the wasps will get angry and go into attack mode. Spray the foam (Raid and Ortho make reliable wasp killers) and stay away from it for a day or so. Afterwards, wear protective cloting, thick and dense materials like leather, denim, canvas etc, and eyewear and a dust mask to keep the wasps from getting to your softest tissue, and remove the nest by hand. You will be stung a few times.
The other option is to call a professional pest control office. They know very well how to handle wasps in all populations.

∙ 13y agoFirstly, do not disturb it til dark. If it is the type that nests under eaves of homes, or porches, there are many sprays made just for that purpose..Spray the nest after dark, because all the wasps will be there then..For ground nesters like yellowjackets, we wait til dark, then pour around one half gallon of gasoline down the nest hole.That will take out the nest.
