would you please do another thread or just tack on to this one now OPs issues is gone...about this Hawkeye stuff ...where to get it??? how much??? whats best practise etc..... was at mates place on wet coast a couple of years ago..7 VERY active nests in 10 meters up a steep bank..zapped 5 of them but other two were too active to get near with powder....I just puff it in entrance from as close as I can..usually roots them in hour or so. have done the pipe trick SIMILAR to what Barry discribed except we dipped 1/2" alkathene in pottle,put thumb over top end..poked loaded end into hole an blew hard through my end... bee keeper showed me this 40 years ago.
I maintain its only a matter of time till someone injured and bleeding will be killed by wasps..when they zone in on blood they are shocking.

I’m a vespex registered, yes it’s not cheap but I purchase it a kilo at a time share it around okiwi with other folks, the difference it’s has made is huge, two teaspoons full in a couple of bait stations seems to wipe out the local population over night

Get into them now and enjoy the results for the next years, massive reduction in numbers, last year I struggled to get enough wasps to warrant application.

VC the cunning bugger wiped the bait stations down with fresh fish skins before use increased our hit rate 100% .

Love the stuff and highly recommend it. Maybe see if the neighbours will put in for a tub.

But personally for what I spend on bait burley fuel and beer to be wasp free it’s not that expensive at all.
