Description
Spectracide Wasp & Hornet Killer aerosol eliminates wasp and hornet nests with a jet spray that reaches up to 27 feet. Use this product outdoors where insects live and breed. This product's powerful spray will also kill insects that return to the nest over the next few days. The non-staining formula can be used around most home siding depending on age and cleanliness (see product label for details). Also controls tent caterpillars, scorpions and ants. To control wasps, hornets and yellow jackets, spray at sunset when these insects are least active. Stand a safe distance from the nest - don't stand directly underneath. If it's windy, stand with the wind at your back to avoid spray drift. Spray the nest until soaked. Wait at least 24 hours before removing the nest. Do not use this product in or on electrical equipment due to the possibility of shock hazard.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started noticing a wasp or yellow jacket trying to come in every time I opened my back door, so I got some Spectracide Wasp & Hornet spray to help me nab that stinger before it could get me. I had learned that just a small fog might not bring down a determined flyer, so I was ready to point and spray. I had masked up when I saw one in my house, preparing because I didn’t want to breathe in too much spray, and when I found that insect, I sprayed and sprayed. At least 7-8 seconds at a time, and it went down during the third set. I’m letting a professional take down the nest, but at least I kept from getting stung!

Every summer, I have a major issue with wasp nests on the eves. I take care of the problem with this spray...really does the job. The foam quickly drops the wasps right from their nests. I just sweep them up after. I highly recommend this product for your wasp problem!

This did not work! We hit several wasps directly and doused them, and it didn't phase them at all. They flew off like nothing happened.

Spectracide Wasp & Hornet Killer Aerosol is the best wasp & hornet killer spray that I have used! It works exactly as described and it is very effective and kills wasps with one application. The aerosol shoots up to 27ft jet spray to reach eaves and hard to get to places. I have never had a problem with it not spraying. I make sure to shake the can the entire time that I am using it and it works great. I buy this Spectracide Wasp & Hormet Killer all the time and I would recommend it to everyone.
Great hornet spray.

Great product, effective at 15-20 feet. The stream is foamy so it traps the wasps and reduces the change of being stung. Killed the wasps pretty quickly and one application did the trick.

Sprays far but wasps kept returning to make new nests. After 4 days and multiple times spraying per day, I know I will not buy this brand again. I’ll buy Raid.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We tried many different brands of hornet and wasp killer that only seem to agitate them and make things worse. Spectracide works immediately on impact and where other brands spray nozzle would clog Spectracide stays clear and has a strong flow. Definitely recommend!!
Great product!

This is a product that I've used for years with great success. I get a lot of bees in my yard during the summer including carpenter bees that like to eat my shed. This wasp and hornet killer should stop them.

I live out in the country and it seems like every where I turn, I see a was nest. All I had to do was wait until the evening, spray this on the nests and let it work it's magic. This product worked great on getting rid of wasps and yellow jackets at my home. The best part was that I was able to stand a good distance away in order to spray them, so there wasn't any chance of getting stung. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I got this at the perfect time. There were tons of wasps making nests around our home and ny husband is severely allergic so we cant have that. This spray killed them quick and handled the random baby ones that sometimes make it into our home without any problems. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]
