Hi Blain & all,

I'm sure I got good coverage of the yellowjacket nest as I took the top
off the brood box and broke up the paper nest with the sprayer wand while
pumping in the 9 gal. of soap solution.  Maybe I need a bigger sprayer
;-) I used a cheap dish detergent...wonder if certain kinds are better.  I
understand that nearly any soap solution will work on AHB.

BTW, I think the offending species was _V. vulgaris_.

cheers,
Dave Pehling
