I have a set of two wooden steps resting on concrete outside a door. *The

get in and out.


I am afraid to try to remove any of the boards to gain access because they
are very aggressive.


In a previous post I was asked for pictures. *You can see them at:

Any suggestions will be appreciated. *Thanks.


Dust where they go in and out with a little sevin dust. They will take
it into the nest. It may take a week but this is abou the easiest way
to get rid of them. If you can gently blow a little under the steps
with a vacuum cleaner that good too.

I've had success with that on yellow jacket nests when they get behind
the siding. They get some of that Sevin on them and contaminate their
nest with it.
