Key item features

  • Foaming Expansion: This product utilizes an expanding foam aerosol design, featuring an extension tube to effectively reach hard-to-access areas where insects commonly reside, ensuring comprehensive application.

  • Immediate Kill: Provides a kill-on-contact action, particularly effective for yellowjackets when applied during times of low activity, such as early morning or late evening, for optimal results.

Effective

Have used this product two years in a row now. Absolutely and totally effective in destroying yellow jackets in ground nests. Apply at night and fill the hole. May have a second hole nearby. Activity will be severely diminished first application. Check the hole early the next morning and you may see a couple flying nearby. Reapply morning and night until no activity is observed. One can may be enough but I keep a couple of cans all the time. Locate the nest hole from a distance during the day and then apply at night while using a flashlight.

Fast & Effective!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Took care of a big wasp nest in minutes! The spray reaches far, works instantly, and kept me safe from stings. Definitely my go-to for any wasp or hornet problem.
