Default Yellow Jackets (Wasps) in attic...

We have been having a heck of a time this year on our
property with wasp nests. I have killed off a bunch already in the eves,
behind shutters..etc..

I was on the roof a few days ago and there were a bunch
of them coming and going to a nest that appears to have been built under
the shake shingles at the ridgeline of my home. I sprayed and killed a
bunch - but obviously barely
put a dent in the population. There are now a bunch of them coming and going
through a turbine vent a foot or so from where they were seen a few days
ago. Clearly I have a major hive in the attic.

I will be contacting an exterminator tomorrow - but I am just curious how
they will likely deal with this. Will they open up the roof to access and
clean out the hive? Wil they attck the problem from the attic crawl space?
Will they fumigate the attic? inquiring minds want to know.

I am sick of these little ba#tards - what can I do to keep
them from reinhabiting my property or keep them in check??

Thanks!

Ken
