[Farmall] Yellow jackets

[John Junkroski]

I found some aerosol spray-can stuff at my local farm store which is  
supposed to be pure menthol, and non-toxic to humans and pets.

I've used it on paper wasps, mud-daubers and ground nesting hornets.

Kills 'em dead, right now. No need to run ( it squirts about 15 feet ).
And it even smells nice. Worth looking for.
