Well now, we share a bit in common there. I also have a huge wasp nest in my attic. So I would be interested to see what anyone suggests.I thought once of setting off an insect fogger.the only reason I haven't is becasue I was afraid the fumes would get into the rest of the house. We had a fan that had a wasp nest and my hubby said there was nothing there because he had been carrying it from job to job.I hate wasps, so I knocked the nest down and out cames a wasp! So I would not take down the nest by hand unless I spray it with insect spray first.
