My new apartment is infected with wasps. Goody.
Their stupid nest is like 10 feet up in the air on the outside of the building so I can't just go get some spray and kill them. They keep finding their way in though. Any brilliant plans Oppo?

Go to the dollar store and buy those fake wasp nests. Wasps are very territorial. I'd like to see what happens.

Smack the shit out of it with a broom while wearing a set of medieval knight armor?

Good thing it's wasps and not spiders. If it were spiders...well you'd have only one logical choice left...

Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

you can find spray can that shoot super far, I've never attempted to shoot them 10ft straight up but they definitely shoot forward pretty damn far

You mean, your old apartment is infected with wasps, right? Good luck on the apartment search!

Best way to get rid of WASPs:
1. Place a copy of today's Wall Street Journal, a copy of Esquire, and a bottle of fine scotch across the street (but within sight of your front door or balcony).
2. Mention loudly, near the nest, that you cannot believe how the WSJ just mentioned some insider information on a stock in a buried article and that you hope no one else reads it.
3. When the WASPs run out of the nest for either the paper (older WASPs) or the magazine/scotch (younger and middle-aged WASPs), aim your semi-automatic sniper rifle at them.
4. You know what to do for this step.

Being alergic, I would make the landlord foot the bill for an exterminator to deal with it once and for all.
Are they coming in through window crevices? You can stuff a towel under the bottom window to keep a better seal from them. Also, get a wasp trap (like a jar with a jar inside it, you fill it with soda, and stick it somewhere well away from your place, and just check up on it at night once in a while.
RAID wasp killer works great, but you still need to be a bit close, and it's not really a solution if there's a nest, more if there's just a pesky few that wont go away.

If you have any neighbors you hate, get up there wearing a bee suit thing, grab the nest, and put it in said neighbor's mailbox.

either my neighbor or we have a nest too, I've been seeing lots of the bastards flying around our front door. I scream like a bitch every time one gets near me. Every. Goddamn. Time.

It reached, I am just not sure my angle was great to get a lot of it in the nest.
Problem is I am up against a huge ass fence as well. Who knows how recessed they are into the building. I am gonna unload two cans tonight.
