How I use this dust to kill off in ground wasps, specifically yellow jackets. Best method I've found that doesn't harm people, pets, or your property. (UPDATE) USE 1/4 OF THE DUST SHOWN HERE, IT WORKS PERFECTLY.

I know I know, I'm suddenly a hypocrite because I actually purchased an insecticide.
In this case, an 87 year old woman was stopped from doing lawn maintenance (yes, she still does that on her own) because yellow jacket wasps decided to take charge of her backyard.
She contacted me several times for help with those "bees"!
I knew based on the description that we weren't going to be dealing with bees, but suspected that they would be yellow jackets (wasps).
They were in the middle of the yard, not under a tree, or off to the side somewhere and considering her age and potential for being stung many times which could be a serious health risk, I agreed to come and deal with them for her.
I did some research first and wanted to use something that wouldn't poison her yard (neighbor wanted to pour diesel fuel in and light it (';') um... please don't.
So, I settled on DeltaDust by Bayer, which has Deltamethrin as the active ingredient. As that's frequently used in cat and dog flea collars, I felt I'd break down and use it on the wasps.
It's not a risk to mammals and I felt pretty solid about it not becoming an environmental hazard.
Deltamethrin at .05% and I suspect the remainder of the powder is composed of diatomaceous earth, aka DE. Which is something I use around the chickens and in the coops.
Well, it works as shown in the video. She is happy to have her backyard back with no big black burnt patch to show for it.
I'm content with the results and thought a video may be helpful.

Thanks for watching as always, and yes, I used an insecticide. Had to happen some day I suppose.
