Simple Ways to Get Rid of Wasps

Wasp Control: Two Simple Methods for Effective Elimination Kentucky resident Ceith Griffith recently shared a video demonstrating two effective methods for wasp control. The first involves using WD-40 to directly spray wasp nests, disrupting the colony and preventing their return. "Just spray behind the shutters or directly on the nest," Griffith advises. The second method involves a simple trap: a mixture of Coca-Cola and Dawn dish soap placed in a bowl. The sweetness of the soda attracts the wasps, while the dish soap creates a surface tension, preventing them from escaping. This method is particularly effective for capturing remaining wasps after nest removal. While WD-40 is a common household item, it's important to use caution when spraying near homes and follow the product's safety instructions. The Coca-Cola and Dawn mixture is a relatively harmless and inexpensive alternative. Griffith's methods offer a practical and readily available solution for homeowners dealing with wasp infestations.
