Wasp problem - Purplecomputer - 07-23-2013
So Ive got wasps living in the merc.
Passenger door ad far as I've seen them coming in and out.
Who knows if they are gonna expand and take over the car. Gotta kill these bad boys
Any tips?
That's what I get for leaving tr car just to sit and rot.

Blast them with Bengal, sold in K-Mart and other stores. Blast and run away fast !

x2 to what greazzer said. Better do this sooner than later, don't want them to get comfortable. Get the car running and take it through a car wash as well to get rid of mud wasp nests and whatnot.
I once went to look at a commanche that had been sitting in a field for unknown amount of time. started and ran, drove it around, total deathtrap, went to open the bed gate, and the handle busted off, and angry wasps started pouring out and attacking me, they had set up residence in the tailgate. They were already agitated because I had driven their home around shaking them up
I passed on the truck.

so far I only see two or three leave at a time.
I opened the door yestered and banged it up and then slammed it shut and ran for my life to see how many would come out. About 5 came out at that point
gotta get this car working again. Ive just been really down in the dumps and unmotivated lately.

You're in the dumps because your 240 isn't running, it's a vicious cycle.
I'm a big fan of ether to take them down, but that will also take paint off and melt plastics.
Check your mirrors, mine had nests hidden behind the glass.
You better make it to the meetup, I'm out in the 95* weather making the wagon ready to go
