I have a problem with wasps. It seems that they are coming from the attic and going into the house
by a vent. I thought they were coming through a sun lamp opening. I taped it shut as a test and
the wasps are still coming through.

Can wasps come in through the heating vents. I would think this is a closed system, but I don't see
another way for them to come in. I have a forced hot air/oil unit that also uses A/C through the
same vents.

I did "bomb" the attic but the wasps are still coming in. It seems that there are no "screens in the
attic, so that it is easy for any insect to come in through the roof on all sides of the attic. I
guess this is for venting. Is there suppose to be screens on the part of the house that touches the
roof to the house walls, to prevent such insects, animals, etc.

If so, what should I use and how should i install it. From the inside of the attic or from the
outside with a 2 story ladder.

Thanks much,
