Default Wasp powder

The church has some wasps that burrow in, and are not at all
affected by wasp sprays. The maint guys have been using some
kind of powder.

Which could be used on homes, possibly during repair.

Anyone know what this powder might be? Now, I will DAGS and
see what I find.



I use 50% Methoxychlor just because I have some, but Sevin does a
good job too it just takes a little longer. Use 10% Sevin instead
of the 5% unless you already have 5%. Just put a pinch of it in the
hole where they are getting in.

Sevin will stain carpets and rugs, so be careful where it might get
inside.
