1 regular size Dawn (original blue)
1 spray bottle ( 24oz)
Water
Pour dish soap into spray bottle, fill with water. Spray on wasps, takes a few minutes but it does work. Why this works: the soap coats the wasps body and wings; hindering flight and suffocating them.(wasps breath through their body). As you can see by these pictures, 1 bottle killed a large nest of red wasps!
I do the same thing for the Japanese beetles I put the mixture in a coffee can and knock em off and into it so I dont have to spray stuff on my plants the only thing I add to it is a few drops of vegetable oil wich speeds up the process :)
