Got Wasps?

Post by Reverenddel »

I built a holster, and mag holder this weekend, between killing wasp.

The wasps decided that RIGHT OVER THE FRONT DOOR is the PERFECT spot for them! After knocking them down, then spraying with poison, repeat, repeat, repeat, I started remembering that we used WD-40 to kill them, and keep them away because of the sticky/oil. The Woman nixed that because she didn't want it to stain the vinyl.

Well, I have G-96 gun treatment (Love tha' banana smell, and it doesn't gum up!) that is safe for plastic stocks, rubber grips, painted sights, etc, etc. I thought, "Give this a try".

Like mace for wasps! Sprayed that on the part they were building their nest, they would touch down, fly off, touch down, fly off, after the third one did it, I gave it another spray, and that was it, they wouldn't even land.

Yeah, it's expensive, but when you have vinyl siding, and do not want to stain it with WD-40? There's your solution.
