Hey, does anybody know if this will work with yellow hackets? I was recently up on the bank in back of my house trimming around some rosemary bushes. I apparently disturbed a nest of yellow jackets, because some camer out at me and started stinging and followed me onto the patio and a couple followed into the house. I'm assuming the nest is in hibernation, so any poisoning won't work until later on. I got stung about a dozen times and can't get to the nest since it's somewhere in the ground under the bush, so I'm assuming I'll have to wait until spring or sometime.
