Default Removing a wasps nest.

Hi,

I hadnt been in to the loft for a few
months. Last night I found a wasps
nest in there. Its only small about the
size of a fist and is quite a thing of beauty.

Its at the edge of the roofspace near the eves.
Im not sure whether its dormant or not.
I was going to try to slide a box underneath
it and knock it off the back of the ceiling felt using
a long 6' pole. Then quickly place a lid and fly spray it.
At least our loft is cold and anything inside
should be sluggish I hope.

Do you think it will work and how firmly
attached are the nests?

Thanks,
Matthew
