Paper wasps/hornets

So it sounds like spray the shit out of them after dark is the winner!!!
Well, that sounds too easy. And I don't want to have to drive the 20 miles to the farm after dark.
So here's what I am thinking.......
Just before I leave the farm this weekend, I'll pull up along side it in my truck, crack the window just a tiny-weee bit, and try and empty a can of raid into it. I can close the window real quick if need be.
I mean, what can go wrong with that plan????
The only thing I can think of is you end up with a cab full pissed off bees. Keep your trigger finger ready to go on that window switch ;)

All set for tomorrow!
The plan is to head up there first thing in the morning. Hoping they won't be too active....
Also going to poke my head into a couple other towers to see if there are any wasp nests in them. There usually are following the summer.

I have several wasp small paper nest in my tower every fall. I just open the door and use a stick to knock them down and shut the door. When they calm down I open the windows and that's that.
