I have had great success using Tempo dust along with the duster he uses in this video. I have eliminated several ground nests as well as nests behind walls and in soffits. Apply after dark when all workers are back in the nest and resting. Not a single hornet left alive by morning. This product also remains active for up to 6 weeks which is important because it will also eliminate any larvae that hatch after the initial application!
Excellent video. Tried to kill the mega yellow jackets' nest in numerous ways before finding this instruction. Killed the entire nest in one application. Thanks so much!
Most importantly any treatment is safer and more effective when dobe at night and all the colony is in the nest. I use a flash light set off to the side and attack from opposite direction as they will mostly go towards the light. A little dust goes a long way and will travel through the hidden voids farther as opposed to clumps. One thing I would've done differently would be to drill a hole into the hollow pillar higher up and shot the dust in there. They have dust inserts that you can put into drilled holes for dusting and they work great. Dust goes inert when moisture gets to it though. So if you have an area prone to frequent infestations of ants, spiders, wasps, etc., you can give a little shot of dust in there once every few months. Also, yellow jackets in particular need to handled very carefully because they have multiple queens...and the queens 100% of the time made a beeline straight at me when the workers were fleeing all other directions. I was a licensed pest technician at the time, and had a bee suit on, and also used a professional dust stick for all yellow jacket and bald faced hornet jobs.
To make it clear I assume when you did the Y.J.’s you were a tech & during the day right? Because you said the queen came right at you! I’m doing it way after dark so hopefully none are able to fly around? I saw one suggested to spray with can of hornet killer so they won’t fly through hole & then when it dries maybe next night do the dusting?!? Thoughts anybody??? 🤔
I had six ground-nesting yellowjacket nests last year. I bought the Tempo Dust (better than Delta Dust), treated all the nests in the late evening in my shorts and flip-flops, never got stung. No puffer needed for ground nests, just puff it out of the bottle, two big puffs per nest. All nests dead within 36 hours. 100% effective, only took half a bottle.
That’s what I’m talking about, hope I get the same result!?!? I saw videos & they are overwhelmed when you drop a load like that, they come out like snowmen!
Actually Hornets and yellow jackets are very beneficial for killing aphids and other pest in the garden that otherwise kill plants or make them sic. Im currently in the process of removing a nest, but I've noticed this year all my plants havent had ANY detrimental bugs (other than snails). Watching closer you can actually watch hornets eat little bugs in the garden. Also one of the top MOTH / CATERPILLER EATERS!
Tempo dust is okay to use inside and outside and is more effective against flying insects than Sevin. Sevin dust should not be used inside, but is more effective than Tempo when killing crawling insects.
I have a wasp or hornet nest between my faux rock siding and my house siding and I want to try it out; do you need the sprayer with the different nozzles or will the less expensive one work? Thanks for any advice!
i have wasps in my outside wall. exterminator is coming tomorrow. I am on aplan so it will be at no charge. my question is - who cleans up the dead wasps including nest in the walls? and then what? I'm sure they are coming through some hole in the outside wall.
The dust is great shit. Way better than the liquid on nests inside of walls and things. I buy the generic squeezy tubes but it's the same principle: locate the entrance, wait until night, use a red light (they can see yellow) and stuff that tube up in the entrance hole (be a man about it) and give them a good puff. They'll spread it around with their frantic flapping of their wings. The sound the hive makes as it dies is like a basso profundo from a church organ, I swear. They all come flip-flopping out the front hole like badly trained high divers, doing the "kicking chicken" all the way down. Scared the shit out of me the first time, but they're harmlessly retarded at this point, just trying to escape instinctively. Creepiest part was how they could still instinctually crawl towards a white flashlight even when dosed up with tetramethrin dust and literally brain dead... NEVER use a white flashlight on a night extermination op. If you fuck up somehow and spook the whole hive without killing it, they'll home in on that flashlight. Don't forget to cut a hole and remove all the corpses and larvae, though. Otherwise it'll rot in the walls and stink like rotting insect guts... which it is
This sucks because I’m renting and mine are in an area where there isn’t one entrance, its like an entire section of wood, and I don’t know that the landlord would be happy with us cutting a hole in the part they’re in. :(
My Y.J.’s are below deck I’m going to remove a board & drop dust on them & quickly put board back in place & say goodnight & the next day will check out the graveyard & screw board back in. 👍
@@blaah9999 If they're in the wall and you can't cut a section to get the corpses out, you probably want to pay for somebody to use a shop-vac to suck them out (and into the soapy water pit of doom). I say pay somebody because it takes a lot longer and the vibration/noise of the vac riles the hell out of them so you probably want a bee suit for any escapees. You also need to locate and plug all the other holes first so they don't escape out the back way. It's less fool proof than dust.
WHERE did you get that puffer duster that puffs upside down??? I have wasps inside my porch handrails where the balusters are anchored and behind my shutters. THANKS!!!
ITS BEEN 11 DAYS AND I HAD YELLOW JACKETS IN THE SIDING ALSO AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF DEAD BEES ALL AROUND MY DECK AND I AM PROUD TO SAY IT DESTROYED 1 HUGE YELLOW JACKET NEST THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO DESTROY WITHOUT TEARING ALL THE SIDING OFF AND 2 WASP NEST NOT A SINGLE LIVING BEE AFTER JUST 2 TO 3 DAYS LATER THEY ARE ALL 100% DEAD
Dude i love this dust. Screw the naysayer(s). $55 next day air instead of a $75 house call to your local pest control. Which i did call and make an appt just to watch them drive by my house and never called, triggering me to buy the dust instead. Thanks rose pest solutions. Worthless.... buy the dust. Of course the guy who does it for a living has something negitive to say. Big surprise lol.
The only thing that concerns me is that the active ingredient in Tempo dust is cyfluthrin, which is a repellent. This means that the paper wasps will be aware when I spray. They are in a hard to reach location and I am terrified of them. One of the locations they are in would mean they will drop/fall directly down onto my hand and me, because they are deep inside of a light fixture. I am looking for something to apply close up in places that will leave me in an unsafe, precarious position.
@@KooperSalmo Thanks; I learned that bees and wasps can sting through Tyvek, especially since in humidity it sticks to your skin (non-breathable). Because wasps can sting repeatedly, I'm leery. I've seen people wear up to three bee suits and still get stung.
Who's the nut-job, that left that gap at the bottom of the Pillar, so that those little pests could get in there, in the first place? They could have sealed that gap off, so that those little monsters couldn't have nested in there... but no! This is why this guy has ro do the dusting process with the Tempo Wasp and Hornet Killer! Completely pathetic. They used to say:"An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". Apparently, though, people don't believe in that anymore, so we end up with stuff like this having to be done!
Hi thanks for video, I have a 10 x10 shed that's raised off the ground. I have yellow Jack's under there for years. I'm assuming there's thousands under there. I did the wet/dry vac for a while that killed about a thousand. My question is, I see the crack where there going in and out. Seems like the only spot i see their going in and out of. Do you think if I spray the 54 spray and the powder into that crack. Do you think that will kill the whole nest, if I'm only spraying the entrance. I would think the nest has to be the foot print of the shed 10 x 10. It's been going on for years. Thank you for your help
Hey I was wondering if it worked? I’m having the same issue. I was wondering the same since my nostril can only reach a certain part if it got to them all?
@@mmadsisrad yes it did, I had that wet dry vac setup for over a month and had a blink video camera on it. And every time I seen a bunch trying to go in, I turn it on I must of killed a thousand that way. Seen that stuff on line the can of spray and powder, from do it yourself pest control and I bought the set and a bulb for that powder and it worked great. I did not see one after that, and till this day 6 months later. Do it at night, spray the can for 12 to 15 seconds into the crack were there going in, wait 10 minutes and then pump the powder in. I also put powder on the surrounding area. I was a little skeptic about it, but red all the reviews on that site and every one of them was excellent. All that time waisted with the wet dry vac. When this took it out in one night. They did tell me that they could come back in the future. So try to seal up where there getting in.
@@dogtag114 Wait a week after you see no adult workers and apply a second treatment to kill any left over larvae/newly hatched workers. You'll know when the nest is dead because it will stink like crazy for a few days around the nest entrance when the dead larvae start decomposing.
Just called my hardware store. This stuff got pulled off the shelves in Maryland. No real reason given. I'm assuming it's super horrible for everything.
@@TheDjelements Had to call an exterminator. The yellow jackets had a nest the size of a basketball just inside the wall. After the nest extraction I sealed up the hole they were using. All gone! :)
Wasps are not pollinators like bees. We had them get behind siding and then find their way inside our home. When you have many stinging wasps inside, it is time to eradicate them especially if someone in the home is allergic! I am an animal lover, but safety of family must be a priority.
Finally, exactly what I've been looking for. Been trying to get a yellow jacket nest behind a wall
Went through very similar situation and used this stuff. VERY satisfying to use!!!!!!!!!!!

Lol enjoyed this post! Yellow Jackets are one of the worst! U can’t outrun them! Make sure you have a good game plan to get rid of them👌

So happy to hear this. Just ordered the same about a half hour ago. Can't wait to get rid of those fu&^ers.

I laughed so hard when you said he doesn't know what to do. Lol. thanks for the video! Buying this asap.
Don't feel bad about killing off Yellow Jackets, they are NOT Pollinators--only Stingers!

Thanks man. Heading to Menard tomorrow immediately after work
I dont think menards sells this ebay and amazon
I use Sevin dust and a empty plastic Ketchup bottle. Works like a dream.
Tempo dust is okay to use inside and outside and is more effective against flying insects than Sevin. Sevin dust should not be used inside, but is more effective than Tempo when killing crawling insects.
I'll give it a shot
Works perfect!!!!
great job!!
I have some kind of bees behind my vinyl siding. I assume this would work on them as well?

Best product in the world garenteed
So what is the result of this powder did it not them out i have yellow jackets in the siding at my spot
Tempo does do well. Drione dust works much faster as it has a better knockdown.
Drione has little to no residual effect, Tempo has excellent residual. Much more important with dusting applications, imho.
why not do it at night when theyre sleeping?
Can I use this as a preventive?

Hell yes I just killed a nest yesterday for my neighbor
After you spray nest with tempo , how long does it take to completely kill all yellow jackets?

Does it kill the larvae or do they hatch days later? Or does the dust work for several days?
