Yeah buddy, I tried that already. The entrance to the hive is in a tough spot behind the receptacle. The receptacle is recessed into the house. I appreciate the advice.
I had a similar problem earlier this summer.
Yellow jackets nested behind the siding on my house - going through the opening on the bottom of the corner piece to get in.
I sprayed that hole for weeks with bee killer. But they just kept coming in and out.
My wife wanted me to call an exterminator.
But I decided to try something different.
I have a bottle of ant/termite killer concentrate. I mix it with water, and spray around the house foundation once a year.
I sprayed it full strength on a small rag and stuffed it into the opening - at night when it was safe.
Figuring they now had to fly on or through that extra strength killer.
A few days later, they were gone.
I left that small rag in the opening to keep any from coming back.
But haven't seen any there since - almost two months later.
And I spent the money I saved by not calling in an exterminator, on new waders!
Good luck
