Today I was able to kill an entire family of wasps with the two items shown above. I'm not talking just immediate family, I mean extended with spouses included. I've known there was a family living in our house for some time now...let me just stop there and explain for those of you who just swore off coming to our house ever again. Outside on our patio between the side of the house and the chimney, there is a little space between brick and wood where they can crawl in. I noticed this one day and immediately got the wasp spray. Little to my knowledge, it was almost empty so I was only able to get 3-4 of them before I ran back in the house to observe (side note, Husband was outside cutting tile and thought I had gone mad with my flailing about and swatting motions). This morning when I was taking Tex out for his morning poop, I noticed 2 that were somewhat lethargic and not moving very fast. I sprang into action. I first sprayed the ones that were outside on the chairs and then decided to spray the area I had seen them going into. Keep in mind, Husband had once said "Why are you wasting all the Raid. It's never going to kill those things." Well, he was wrong! It might not completely kill the little buggers, but it damn sure stuns them for a bit. All in all, I killed 16 wasps!! I might have looked a little crazy doing it but they are all dead. I took a picture to prove my heroic actions. The dark spots on the concrete are pools or Raid where I tried to drown each as they fell to their untimely deaths.
