Just stumbled on a underground wasp nest while mowing. I haven't mowed in while due to all the rain we have been getting. Not sure if they were there previously but looking for ways to destroy them. I have a tree near by I was think maybe put some bird seed around to attract more birds🤷‍♂️ Any advice is greatly appreciated

Growing up we would get after yellow jackets by dumping a bucket of boiling water on the nest after dark, but if it is in your yard, that might not be great for the grass, either. I had a thread last year: https://thelawnforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=19990&start=20. @Grass Clippins mentioned he had a nest under his porch deck and took them out with Tempo dust. Seems like a good option.

Tempo Dust works for me:

This dust might be my next option. I forgot about them until now, which I have to mow today. Last night I sprayed down the hole with some "underground yellow jacket killer." I filled the hole a couple times with the spray. However as I am writing this they are back to their normal routine.
Will the wasp spray kill the grass around the hole?

 

I've used Tempo and love it.
Get a long reach bulb dedicated to Tempo and label it.

Happy dusting!
