Default Yellow Jackets in the Eaves!

Any suggestions for getting rid of these bees? I'm most concerned about
damage to the house and honey left behind to attract other problems.
Unfortunately that attic isn't really accessible from the inside.



If they are not getting into the house they are of no concern, though as
Winter arrives some may find their way inside through the ceiling
penetration of light fixtures or can lighting. Wasps don't make honey so
that won't be an issue. They will die out when winter arrives. Yellow
jackets will be hundreds of wasps by the end of Summer in an enclosed
nest so it will be just blind luck if you can kill them out with the
usual sprays/dusts in what you are describing.
